Hello. Can an grounding electro conductor be in the same raceway (PVC) as the 4 wire feeder. Basically I’m installing a meter/ main combo outside and need to run a feeder to the exciting panel. This installation will be in an attic so in order for us to get the GEC to this panel can we use the same PVC. Thanks

Have you checked the definition of a GEC, (grounding electrode conductor) in your Code book?
And the definition of an EGC?
The
GEC does not terminate in your sub panel.
Do you instead, mean, an
EGC (equipment grounding conductor) in your PVC?
I think that is what you meant to say. So, watch your language.
There is a big difference in the two conductors. Each one is for a very particular reason.
