I noticed a friends's Square D panel, the
neutral and ground (from the utility company
feed) are connected to the same bar. And less
than an inch apart.
Shouldn't the ground be connected to the
separate ground bar?
Should I move the ground wire?
No if this is the service disconnect enclosure where the ground
electrode conductor lands and the main disconnect resides they will be
on the same bus bar.
The question is about the circuit breaker panel
in the cellar. There is a main breaker, but I'd
not call it a main disconnect.
Unless there is another disconnect before it, then the main
breaker is the main and only disconnect. Most panels here,
the main breaker serves as the disconnect.
