I am working on a church that was built in 1968. Everything that has a speaker in the building has a 60 cycle hum in it. The building ground is one ground rod in the main electrical room that is connected to the cold water pipe. (There are no prints for the building.) It looks like the cold water pipe is used for the ground for all three breaker panels. (Zinsco). A basic outlet tester shows that the ground is intact. I loosened and retightened the visible ground connections in the main electrical room. I also shut off ALL of the circuits that were not connected to a 'humming' device. NOTHING seemed to help. My question is-Is there some definitive way to diagnose this problem?
