I am having brain fade, I know in a panel we can put 2 ground conductors under one lug if the manufacturer lists it that way. I know we can't put 2 neutrals/grounded conductors under one lug, but I can't find the code section. Also would this apply to a large lug that is made for multiple parallel conductors (1/0 or larger) installed by the manufacturer.

408.41 Grounded Conductor Terminations. Each
grounded conductor shall terminate within the panelboard
in an individual terminal that is not also used for another
conductor.

Exception: Grounded conductors of circuits with parallel
conductors shall be permitted to terminate in a single terminal
if the terminal is identified for connection of more
than one conductor.

Thanks, that was FAST. I thought it was ok for parallel conductors.
