@@EngineeringMindset hi, i got a quick question. In my sub panel, there's a grounding/lightning rod underneath it and it's disconnected from the sub panel. To hook it back up, where does it connect to? To the ground bus bar / body of the sub panel? Or does it connect to the neutral bus bar? I also live in the United States.

@shalomgconstruction4136 2 года назад

A video about sub-panel would be nice when you can please! And why neutral and ground bar can't be together but the main panel can be??🤔 Thanks!!

@LostPilotage 2 года назад

@@EngineeringMindset - Would you please consider a practical description video, on how a whole home surge protector works, something akin to a Siemens FS140 device, I believe that is a type 2 device. My belief, is it is connected to both bus bars, senses a voltage increase (surge), and opens a gate to ground (path of least resistance) to regulate the voltage incoming down, and protect the rest of the circuits, it is sacrificial of course.

In addition, can you put a ground and a neutral into the same screw? If so does that also apply to having two ground wires into one screw and two neutral wires into another? THANKS!

@@levelup1279 I think the price is the main reason. Also, in UK such breakers called RCD (Residual Current Device) and placed not 1 for a room, but one breaker for a full house. In such case full house if protected. I see no disadvantages when it comes to a human life safety)

@amorag59 2 года назад

@@levelup1279 A GFCI won't save you if you stick a fork in the outlet without being grounded. It only works if it sees a different current back from the load than what was sent. What is good (especially if children are present) are tamper resistant receptacles that have a little doors in the slots that only open when both hot and neutral plug pins are inserted at the same time. It's residential code around here.

@valuedhumanoid6574 2 года назад

My first home was a 100 year old farm house that had been “farmer” built and engineered. No code was followed. I decided to change the front porch light fixture. So I turned it on with the switch, saw the lamp go on, the shut it off, the light went dark. So now I can safely remove the old fixture, right? WRONG! I put a screwdriver to the wire and received a good shock! Why? I was not wired correctly. Basically when the switch was off, it was just grounding it out. The fixture stays hot all the time. Beware. That’s why you use the breaker when working on a circuit you know no history on. It worked like that for years and the old saying if it’s not broken, don’t fix it is what farmers live by

@adventureoflinkmk2 2 года назад

And that's why you also verify with a voltmeter before you proceed work

@47colima Год назад

Thanks!

@allan1776 2 года назад

Great video. One correction: I believe the the grounds from the circuits are supposed to connect to the ground bus bar, not the neutral bus bar. And the grounding rod is supposed to connect to the ground bus bar. This is especially important in a sub-panel, where the neutral and ground bus bars are not connected to each other.

@trevorplaysguitar 2 года назад

In general, yes that’s true. It depends on the ground fault protection of the circuit. You wouldn’t want to have your neutral bonded to ground downstream of your ground fault protection, as it would cause the breaker with said protection to constantly trip with virtually any load. For residential circuits this shouldn’t be too big of an issue though, since you only really see dedicated ground fault protection on the GFCI outlets. In commercial and especially industrial settings though, ground fault protection is very important and it’s therefore important not to bond your neutral and ground downstream of the protection.

@dereknadeau713 2 года назад

You are correct about the subpanel. The video is correct and by code. When the service disconnect (Main Breaker) is in the service equipment panel then by code you need to terminate the grounded conductor (Neutral) on the neutral bar, and connect it to the ground bar and panel. It is important to connect the grounds and neutrals together. If you watch the video closely, in an event of a ground fault the current is going to travel the ground wire to the panel to the neutral back to it's source. If your main disconnect is at the meter then you would connect the ground and neutrals together and then separate it at the main panel. Electrician U does a get video on why you separate the grounds and neutrals in the subpanel.
