I have a 400A service located at the street approximately 140 ft. from the house; it is a free standing 400A service meter main. My question is on grounding. Section 250.32 refers to building to building and or structure to structure grounding and I have neither. I have come to the decision that I would ground and bond the natural at the main service via a ground rod with a # 1/0 copper wire per section 250.66 and run all my feeders to the main distribution board in the house via PVC ?without an equipment ground wire? Please note that there is no physical tie of any sort between the service equipment and the house nor is there any distribution at the meter main service equipment other then the 400A Main. At the house I am going to establish a new electrode grounding system and bond the cold water, the uffer and the equipment enclosure to the natural bus.
