Marc Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 Doesn't look like. And that lug isn't installed as it's listing specifies, I'll betcha. That's what a neutral bus or ground bus is for. You've also got a stranded conductor pared down to fit into the neutral bus slot. Marc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denray Posted July 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 Udda man Marc. I missed that pare down deal! [:-paperba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurt Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 Are you sure? What about the enclosure bond with the stranded copper; doesn't that run up to the neutral bar, thereby bonding ground, enclosure, and neutral? I'm not sure, but I see older panels that are bonded in varying ways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denray Posted July 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 I think that stranded copper was the grounding electrode conductor. It went into flexible metal conduit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Katen Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 Also, if you haven't sent out the report yet, you might mention that those red Murray main breakers have a problematic history. . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hausdok Posted July 28, 2013 Report Share Posted July 28, 2013 Like Jim, I saw that screw in the first photo and said to myself, "Yes it is!" Look at the panel schematic when you get those older panels. Lots of times I've had unfamiliar older panels that I thought weren't bonded. Then I checked the schematic to see where the panel was supposed to be bonded and then look at the panel again and, voila', most of the times there it was. ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!!
