I work at a company in Wisconsin and am taking the Journeymen's class of yours
and have a question of bonding and grounding a new Pnael that was installed.
The Contractor that installed a new panel for us has no ground wire coming to
the panel and the Transformer as far as I know is not Bonded to the Building.
to each outlet there are no ground wires pulled and the outlets have no ground
pigtails to the boxes. When we called him on it he sent a article over from the
code book that stated that conduit is a acceptable ground. He refered to the
following article 250.118 Items 2, 3, & 4.and he states that this is a
acceptable equipment grounding conductor using the conduit.
I beleive that the proper way of doing it is to pull a ground wire.
Would you please advise your stand. I have been reading your articles and
beleive that you would say to pull the ground wire however I beleive this
contractor does not want to occur the cost of the ground conductor and pulling
of it.
Thank you for your time.
