I have an installation where the bonding wire that connects to all the metal fixtures has been run back to the pump motor. The circuit to the pump motor is protected by a GFCI breaker that trips as soon as the bonding wire is connected to the bonding terminal on the pump. As an inspector, I have always seen the bonding jumper connected at this point without any problems. What might I need to look for as a potential problem. The homeowner says they will simply leave the bond off and I have told them they can't do that. Any thoughts on potential problems would be greatly appreciated so I can advise the owner a starting point.
