Hello everyone. I have a detached garage with a 90 amp sub panel. I already have the panel fed from the main panel.
In the sub panel I have 2 ground bars. I have a ground coming from the main which is attached to 1 ground bar. The other ground bar has a ground cable that's attached to 2 ground rods (6 ft apart). Both ground bars are attached directly to the box (not isolated). Yes, the neutral has been isolated(screw removed).

I am now installing 20 amp receptacles
So here's my question.
Does it matter which ground bar I attach the receptacle ground wire to?
Thanks

This has to be the shortest answer to an electrical question on here that I’ve even seen. No one has quoted the NEC section, or chapter….unbelievable!
