What you are saying is there's no need for a grounding system. No substation ground grid, ground rods or a system neutral. It all returns to the transformer thats powering it. Correct? I would like you to take a light buld and socket out to your ground rod. Unhook it from your house. Run a...

Hum.. not what I was talking about. A fault is any current not on its intended path. Electric current seeks a complete circuit. When electricity is "used" its returned on the neutral (at ground potential because of connection to ground) the current is dissipated along all the ground rods on the...

Close but no cigar. Its tied together at the box not the outlet. The outlet or gfi is looking in its self, not down the road. Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk

Neutral current flow does in fact flow on a grounded path way, it will find the fastest and easiest way to a ground. Weather its the owners ground rods, utilitys power pole ground rods or the substation ground grid. All its doing it finding the quickest path back to earth. What do you think a...

It is safe. Just not code. The power from the poco only has 2 hots and a neutral. He did the same thing. In the meter can its all tied back together when it hits the poco system all the way back to the substation then it hits the station ground system underground. All tied together. Dont worry...

Is you meter on the house? Got a picture of you box setup and the surrounding area? I would jump out of the box at the house to a 200a fused disconnect then to the ground with 4/o aluminum triplex to the garage to another panel. I would run it north, east then south with out using a 90, except...

In my town an I came across that... yes you would have to bring it up to code. New mast and meter can. Got to have a inspection before I would hook that back up. Duncan lineman Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk
