Grounding

[rustad]

If you have a feed through panel on a pole and you want to pull power wires to a house, garage, and barn do you need to pull a ground wire with all them or can you use ground rods at each location?

No, this is permitted as long as there is no metal connection between the two buildings that could act as a parrallel path for nuetral current, at the house, barn, garage you would bond all GEs to make up the GE System

Re: Grounding

BTW, regardless of whether or not you pull an equipment ground to the separate locations, 250.32 will require ground rods or some other grounding electrode at each building.
