May 7 at 12:20 | comment | added | Ecnerwal | @EvilElf if a subpanel is installed downstream, properly as a subpanel, with isolated neutral and ground in the sub-panel, there is no "very dangerous situation." Bonding in the main is standard and normal. If a new main is installed upstream, for instance a retrofit outside disconnect and/or service upgrade, then the former main must, as part of that change, be converted into an unbonded sub-panel with isolated neutral and ground. Your statement as written reads as vague fear from lack of understanding. | |
