I am working on a old farm which has a standard center pole, trans at top. At the bottom is a small 200 amp panel feeding 3 sets of overhead tri plex (house, shed, garage). We were asked to change out panel in house. Question being the 3 wire tri plex, with no equipment ground coming from first point of disconnect, do I bond my grounds and neutrals at the panel in the house as well as at pole? I understand this is not code but if i dont bond them in the house, my equipment ground (from rods at house) would not be connected to my grounded conductor at any point other than through earth back to pole. Unfortunantly owner doesnt want to spend money on 4 wire overhead upgrade.
