Within the transformer case, if the Grounding Electrode routes through a ground lug, unbroken, then terminated to XO, is a separate SBJ required. Both wires are sized the same.
So, if the Grounding Electrode is unbroken, bonded to the casing and terminated to XO does it satisfy the Grounding Electrode requirement and the System Bonding Jumper requirement. Does the one conductor satisfy both conditions?
I believe the one conductor would satisfy both conditions but I would love some feedback, maybe from someone with a big brain.
Why wear two neck ties if you only need one.
PS: I'm not asking about the EG or the SSBJ, I understand the bonding requirements.
 
IMO, that is perfectly acceptable,,
(Note 450.10(A) as to terminal bar location)
