I am running electric to a building on my property. i have a 30 amp double breaker at the house panel and have ran roughly 110 feet of 8/2 with a bare ground and installed a ground rod at the sub panel for the building.
I know black and white are my 2 hot wires and the #6 coming from ground rod goes to my grounding bar in the sub panel, but do I hook the ground wire from the #8 to the ground bar or common bar at the house panel and the sub panel?
Best Answer
The current National Electrical Code that most jurisdictions employ will no longer allow a 3 wire sub-panel feed.
4 wire feeders are now required for sub panels. Two hot legs, a neutral, and an equipment ground.
Hopefully, you can correct this without too much hassle.
Good luck!
