I have a 400 amp Service Entrance / Meter located 150 or so feet from the house (new construction) with grounding rods. It has two separate 200 amp Breakers (Disconnects).

At the house I have two separate 200 amp HOMELINE panels (or are they considered sub panels since I have the Service Entrance and meter located downline??) with Ufer ground in the foundation.

Ok.

So, ...... the Homeline panels do not have a separate grounding bus. By code and or for good reason, do I need to add a separate grounding bus?

Thank you.
