My situation has a 4000amp 480/277V system building main is switch gear.
Switch gear cabinet has large molded case breaker that feeds a fused disconnect.
Fuse disconnect has 4 wires 3 ungrounded conductors an a ground wire.
Fused disconnect goes in rigid conduit under cement for about 80 ft and emerges out of concrete to a wireway.
In wireway conductors are tapped to feed a transformer 480/240-120 single phase.
Two hots are tapped from 480 feed for xfrmr input and incoming ground wire from fused disconnect is ran to XO
240/120 output of transformer is connected with 2 hots and the neutral and ground to XO going to 120/240 panel neutral neutral bar ground to ground bar
Does this require a grounding electrode local to the transformer to attach to the XO such as building steel or rods.
