Default Headlight power wires ground continuity

29 Tudor with early headlight like the 28.

I did a continuity test from ground to each wire in side the socket of the headlights. Both green and red show continuity to ground.

My issue is my safety fuse (30 amp) blows when I turn on the high beams.

I just go this car and some wiring was generic so I replaced it with correct harnesses. I did not replace the light harness, it was correct and looked in decent shape.

Headlight bulbs were burned out, so I got new correct ones (32-50). Low beams are fine, horn is fine, tail light etc....only when I turn to high beam, then the fuse blows. Obviously something is shorting. Visual shows no breaks.

So just curious if I should have continuity to ground from the socket wires.
