I have a 400 amp single phase service that is quite old, 20-25 years. Its been flooded a couple of times, and I don't know who has done any work on it previously. I was called to replace a service lateral that was somehow damaged. The cold water bond was terminated in the CT cabinet, not in the two 200 amp disconnects. They are fused with a neutral bar, two lug. The correction that was written says that the cold water bond shall not be terminated on a enclosure, but on the grounded termination point. Are there neutral bars made for Sq D 200 amp disconnects that will accept two 2/0 and 2 #2 wire plus the ground rod wire?
I think it is correct that we can't term the cold water bond in the CT can.

bark, The CT cabinet should be grounded to the 'neutral' conductor already and the water

pipe grounding electrode could be terminated at that same location. All of the connections

are made at the same location , from the meter to the first disconnecting means.

To answer your question, I'm sure SQ. D has the part(s) you need for the disconnects.
