Ocean return path? Please say more. I picture a gigantic carbon electrode stuck in the ocean by a power station - rather like the core of a really large "D" cell. That sounds like a recipe for excitement - DC current into seawater should generate hydrogen on one and and oxygen on the other electrode. At 3000 amps, rather a lot of it. As for monitoring 60 Hz, I was doing some on line research, and found some interesting power line frequency meters at: http://www.laurels.com/frequency.htm Surprisingly affordable (less than $300).
