Jeff,
You are always better off running a separate neutral and ground.
So we can not use the utility service anymore? :wink:
What makes it different on the load side of the service disconnect? :? (As far as separate structures are concerned)
Lets say a 200 amp service disconnect is on a pole at the street and the run to the home is 500'.
Is it really better to run an EGC?
Wouldn't the impedance of the ground fault path be higher using the NEC sized EGC than the larger grounded conductor?
I have never used 250.32(B)(2) but I can imagine instances where I would.
Just some items for discussion.
