Hi, I am installing a DC PV system on a detached garage. The garage has a 100 amp sub-panel run from the house and an auxiliary grounding electrode. My question is about bonding the PV overcurrent/disconnect panel to the #6 bare copper going to the grounding electrode of the garage. We also have run a EGC back to the inverter in the main house, where all will be bonded. We are on 2020 code cycle. Question. I installed a bond from the DC disconnect in the garage to the AC garage sub-panel grounding conductor. Is this bond needed or recommended? Thanks in advance for any thoughts on this confusing topic.
690.47 "A building or structure(s) supporting a PV system shall utilize a grounding electrode system installed in accordance with Part III of Article 250."
Check. The garage has its own GE installed.
