Hello Paul,
possibly 50Hz/60Hz harmonics and other noise are falsifying your measurement.

>For Stefan: based on 250W/0.48A the total loss resistance should be 1085 Ohm.
>The coil (553mH, Q=82) counts for 380 Ohm, so "ground loss" is about 700 Ohm.
>So unless you are living on solid rock or in a desert 70 kOhm seem very high.
