I recently asked a question about neutral and ground in a subpanel in the same building structure. Now suppose the subpanel is in a remote structure (100 ft away, this is a situation at my brothers house). In this particular case the subpanel was installed with (1) GEC to grounding rods at the remote build, (2) 3 wires and a ground running from the main panel, and (3) the ground and neutral tied together at the subpanel. Are the neutral and ground supposed to be tied together at the remote subpanel when remote grounding rods are used? What about when remote grounding rods are not used? Are the remote grounding rods required?
