especially the alternator ground wire?
The battery light is NOT saying your battery is low. It's saying your alternator isn't providing enough current to keep up with the electrical loads. If you checked it with a 'normal' voltmeter, check again under load. Turn on all the electrical loads in the car (lights, fan...) & measure voltage at the alternator.
If its a new alternator, it may just be defective. We could guess about voltage regulator vs. diode bridge vs? But... Got a warranty?
