grounding connections

[rjdad82]

I realize that a grounded conductor cannot be landed in a panelboard or switch within a terminal that is already taked by another conductor unless the terminal is listed for that application or is run in parallel. My question is I cannot find where the code says that the grounding conductor has to land on an idividual terminal-lug and cannot be grouped with another grounding conductor. Can anyone assist.

Multiple EGs can occupy the same hole in a bar that is listed for it. CH allows up to three of the same AWG. At least for 14 & 12. You may be SOL for the single hole lug that many of us use. 1 hole, 1 wire. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

As far as the code goes, it is under 110.3(B) following the manafactures instructions. There

are lugs that are good for 1 conductor, and others that are good for more, it will say so

right on the lug.

What are you using to connect the EGC's?

square d QO and HOM panels: 1 or 2 #14 / 1 or 2 #12 for EGC
