N-G bond

[Beckonweb]

I’m losing interest in doing this. Bus bar cannot be removed from the N-G bond. If this means that it creates a second N-G bond at the subpanel breaker powering the bus, then it will not be possible. Doesn’t really make sense though.

There is no meter in the customer meter socket. It has a Tesla Backup Switch meter collar and a jumper cover.

Is the neutral insulated in the meter socket? Most are not.

Also, to be clear, the only thing powering the bus bar will be a 200A loads breaker that does not itself have a N-G bond. But the N and G will need to be placed on the bars in the main panel that are bonded, creating N-G bond for this breaker. Is this a problem?

Don’t think N is insulated in the meter socket. Our utility approved the use of meter socket for this purpose.

Yes, but you will have an illegal second bond, unless you convince the inspector that the first breaker is the emergency disconnect. Doesn’t matter what the utility company approves after their meter, they have no jurisdiction.

I will definitely check this. Thank you for your good guidance.

Is the utility meter in with the main panel? Meaning, is this a meter-main panel?
If not, I'm not getting what is going on at all.
