    Electrical panel: wiring
    Hi,

    This is a 100 amp subpanel with a main disconnect. It's a sub feed off another 100 amp panel. The sub feed wires going into the 100 amp breaker don't appear to be 100 amp rated. Is this correct? Also, since it has a main disconnect would the neutrals and grounds need to be bonded together?

    Thanks

    John

    The only place the neutral and ground are bonded together is at the main service entrance. (main panel). ALL sub-panels regardless of what type they are must have the bonding srew removed as the neutral and ground must not be bonded together.

    How big are the wires, and how big is the breaker feeding them? They do come off a breaker?
