AHJ wants old service brought up to code after fire. Won't allow power back on till grounding is right.
I have 4 - 400A, 480VAC switches being fed from a transformer just outside the wall. All taps are outdoors.
Rather than taking everything apart to install grounding lugs, I was going to use large Burndy pipe clamps on the line side 3" rigid conduits with a 2/0 woven through them and cadwelded to building steel. The clamps are listed for rigid conduit.
At the incoming water I will also clamp and cadweld a conductor to building steel.
Off the conduit 2/0, I was going to irreversible "C" tap conductors to a through bolted lug to each switch and bolt to cleaned steel to bond the switches.
Am I missing something or is this a plan?
Thanks
