How many wires can you put under a grounding terminal and where is it in NEC.

 

[charlie b]

The NEC does not cover automotive applications. Are you talking about something at your home, or is this somehow job related?

The NEC does not cover automotive applications.

In general, yes, 90.2(B)(1), but mobile homes and RVs' are.

Is that A. Moss or Amos S? Either way, welcome to the forum!

Are you asking about a multi-terminal strip, a single lug, or something else??

Why did you mention that?

 

[SG-1]

If the machine manufacturer did it inside the control panel, then they can pretty much put as many as they want under one screw.

I figured he drove trains.

"building engineer" the one that mops and waxes the floor.

Got it. I am slow.

More than one wire under a terminal.

More than one wire under a terminal.

It's a distribution block with more than one wire under a terminal. I thought it may have something with losing my ground continuity.

The distribution block must be indentified for more than 1 conductor under a lug for the application.

As already mentioned take a look at 110.14(A).
