Situation: adding in a new raceway to feed an EV charger / garage 15A circuit in a detached garage. Had to be fished into the panel from a crawl space below, necessitating 1"FMC, then 1"EMT from there through a crawl space to the exterior, then 1"PVC underground into the garage, then a 1900 box in the garage where the EGC lands on a dual lug with the GEC, and from there the branches split off.
I end up with a section of 1"EMT in the crawl space that is not bonded to anything, since the FMC between it and the panel is not an effective path.
What is the best/simplest way to remedy this?
I have considered just adding in one of those water meter bonding kits (or a back to back minnie) between the 1" pipe and an adjacent run of EMT that is continuous to the panel. Perhaps that runs afoul of something in art250, but it's not getting inspected and my primary concern is "common sense safety" over exact code compliance. But if there's a way to do both, I want to know.
Another option was to add in a 1900 box mid-run and window the EGC to a lug, but that seems neither simple nor best, since then any repulling of wires is going to get held up and it's unlikely a future tech would know it's there (future upgrades for a subpanel are a serious consideration of the owner).
