In my attached sketch of this project the engineer is using the bonding jumper in the UPS for the required grounding of the transformer secondary. With the new wording in 250.20(D) is this design a violation?
I would think that a system bonding jumper should be installed in the transformer and a 4-pole bus bar and breakers should be used. I don't know if a 4-pole bus bar is even available.
The 4-wire primary transformer is being used to match the UPS secondary phase angle output from what i understand.
(D) Separately Derived Systems. Separately derived systems, as covered in 250.20(A) or (B), shall be grounded as specified in 250.30(A). Where an alternate source such as an on-site generator is provided with transfer equipment that includes a grounded conductor that is not solidly interconnected to the service-supplied grounded conductor, the alternate source (derived system) shall be grounded in accordance with 250.30(A).
