When installing outdoor service switches with indoor main lug panels . Can the GEC be ran in the same GRC and wireway with the feeders

The only available electrode being metal water piping system is in the same location where the panels will be located my goal is to minimize the amount of labor and material running an extra conduit for the gec. I suppose I can just mount it to the structure but I think that if I can use the same conduit as defeated it would be a little bit of a nicer job

It can be done. Keep 250.64(E) in mind.

Sure here New York City 250.64e is something that we do all the time 99% of the time our gec is usually ran in a metallic raceway I just never personally ran it with any other conductors

So basically it could be ran in conduit with anything? Service entrance conductors, feeders , Branch circuits etc

Yes. But look at Angie’s answer. Often it’s easier to run exposed, or in PVC sch 80 if protection is needed. Using a metallic raceway is good for a time and materials job
