I'm putting electrical service to a recreational lot in Lewis County WA.
I've got the meter pack out in and the conduit done... Inspection this week hopefully.
the plan is for a 100amp service at the road feeding a sub panel which a trailer will connect to.
here's my dilemma
my main doesn't have a a grounding bar. Assuming like my houses main panel, neutral and ground go to same bar.
which will be fine as the sub panel has possibility of adding a ground bar. Outlets can be grounded there.
I was told that per code, I need to have a GFCI outlet at the main panel.
Doesn't seem legit, least of all on a GFCI to have the outlet grounded directly to the neutral bar... But I don't see any other way to connect it & I don't want to fail inspection...
Am I good to go with the neutral and ground at the same bar?
Thanks
