Yet again, haste makes waste. The original OP asked…
"However, can you land the grounded (neutral) conductors onto the ground bus, which is electrically connected through the bonding jumper to the neutral bus? I'm thinking "no" due to NEC 110.5 but I'd like to hear others thoughts. Thanks"
All I 'saw' was grounding electrode conductor landed on the equipment grounding bar. I believe my interpretations concerning the grounding electrode conductor landed on the equipment grounding bus is correct, and I'm looking for substantiation/opinions one way or the other. However… Multiple references to 200.2 made me look closer at the original poster's question.
the 'highlighted blue commentary' following 200.2 in the 2017 handbook says… "Grounded conductors are required to be connected to a terminal or bus that is specifically intended and identified for connection of grounded or neutral conductors. Because grounded conductors are current carrying, connecting them to a separate equipment grounding terminal or bar (I. E. Directly connected to a metal cabinet or enclosure) results in the enclosure becoming a neutral conductor between the equipment grounding terminal and the point of connection for the grounded conductor. Note that 300.13 does not permit the wiring terminal of the device, such as a receptacle, to be the means of maintaining the continuity of the grounded conductor and a multi-wire branch circuit"… I do not have the 2020 handbook yet, mainly because of the price and the two states I typically work in are still on the 2017 and 2014 code cycle.
I apologize for any nonsensical words/lack of proofreading. I use dictation software. If I had to type this it would take me a month.
Thank you, Willy
Any help finding the article where specifically states something to the effect of the opening line of the commentary…
"Grounded conductors are required to be connected to a terminal or bus that is specifically intended and identified for connection of grounded or neutral conductors.… Would be much appreciated.
