We have a transformer connected to the panel by three nipples for a parallel feed. These nipples are maybe 4” Long runnning thread with 4 locknut on each.Does a ground need to go through each nipple from the transformer to the ground? Seems to me these will all be considered a raceway and need a ground my boss seems to think just one.
 
Yes, each raceway would require a SSBJ. It can be sized according to the conductors within each raceway and Table 250.102(C). Since you have metallic nipples they can be used as the SSBJ without an additional conductor.

Welcome to the forum. :)
