The project in question has a simple electrical distribution system. It consists of an 800A, 120/208V, 3ph, 4W, service feeding an MDP. The MDP then feeds a number of branch circuits & a step up transformer. The transformer feeds a 277/480V panelboard.
If I have (1) 20A, 208V, 3ph branch circuit & (1) 20A, 480V, 3ph branch circuit to two pieces of adjacent equipment, can I share a #12 ground as long as I terminate it at both panelboards? The question comes up as I feel this may be a parallel ground path between the main service & separately derived transformer system.
Thanks in advance.
