georgestolz said:250.119 requires insulated equipment grounding conductors (EGCs) to be #6 or larger in order to pull black and re-identify it green.
However, the question becomes: Is the conductor required by 680.26 an EGC? I don't believe it is, and therefore, I believe your installation should have passed.
Anybody else smell crow cooking?
Edit: Are you talking about the EGC of the feeder to the pool panel, or are you referring to the equipotential bonding conductor in 680.26?
It wasn't a typo, I misread the section and wrote what I thought it said.chris kennedy said:George I know it just a typo but 250.119 says
"larger than 6 AWG"
I agree - the reason I didn't know for sure is because I haven't installed anything larger than #10 with green insulation.A #8 with green tape is not going to burst into flames.(IMO)
