Electrical – Grounding Partial Run of Flexible Metal Conduit Between PVC End Points

The conduit will carry three 2/0 Aluminum cables (2 hots, one neutral) and one 6AWG bare copper grounding conductor from main panel to sub panel.

Edit: Can I use an Insulated Metallic Grounding Bushing inside the pvc junction box and tie the bare copper grounding conductor into it? That should take care of it, right?

In this case, it's more than just wire protection. Code requires a raceway for individual wires and if that raceway is metal, it has to be grounded. You can use that grounding bushing but run the ground through the lug and on to the panel without splicing it.
