This panel (there is only one at house) has NO ground bar--grounds and

these new ground connections there as well. Is that OK? If they are
bonded together anyway, I can't see how it could hurt, but as you know
this is all new to me.


That is standard in service panels.

Are you saying it's standard to bond together in service panel or it's
common to just have the "neutral" bar and put grounds and neutrals on
it? I was thinking that they may have just made them like this all
those years ago, but now have the two bars in newer ones. But it's
good to know at least ONE thing seems to be clear cut that it is OK to
do. I was worried that would be a whole new can of worms.

thanks
