I am installing a 125 Amp Sub panel in a detached shed approximately 100' from the house. The subpanel has a 100 amp main breaker in it and I have a 100 amp breaker that will go in the main house panel to feed it. I will be using #4 copper THHN for my 2 hot conductors and neutral conductor and a #6 for my grounding conductor. My question is, do I need to install a ground rod at the sub panel and does the subpanel neutral bar need to be bonded with the grounding electrode conductor. I am thinking I do not need the ground rod or nor do I need to bond the neutral and grounding electrode together, but I am just not sure. Can someone please clarify this for me?
