336.10 (7) says "equipment grounding for utilization equipment shall be provided by a conductor within the cable." I am looking to see if I misunderstand this or perhaps there is an exception which would permit one to use a 3 conductor cable for the 3 phase conductors and then run a single conductor EG along side the cable. That is what my customer is trying to get me to do and I need to understand this before I object. Perhaps the words "utilization equipment" are the key. In this application, the cable in question is the 480 volt supply to a control panel in an auto assembly plant. This is a metallic tray system where the tray may or may not be bonded to the control panel, but that is not my issue (I don't think).
