Not sure if this is the correct forum but it is safety related...
In the jurisdictions you work in, is it required to have a four wire feeder when replacing a sub-panel? This could mean replacing the existing feeder. Are any of you allowing a separate EGC to be run along with the existing feeder to provide this?
In my area there are a lot of older homes with three wire feeders and no equipment grounds to the sub-panels. Because many of these new sub-panels will be used to run new circuits it is my opinion that the feeder should either be replaced with a four wire feeder (se cable installations).
Thanks and I look forward to your feedback...
