What is the best way to connect two #8 awg wires to a ground lug? I read it is a violation to screw two into a ground lug. Can I put a pigtail in the ground lug and the have the twos connected at the other end with wire nut?
My case is:
I have a PV Disconnect that has a #8 awg ground from the combiner box. Now the ground has to continue to the Main Service Panel.
