    Grounding rods at remote buildings
    I pulled a 100 amp subpanel from my house main to a workshop (2legs/neutral/grd) put did not grd rod the workshop panel. I believe I need to drop the grd from the main and add a grd rod; is that correct? Also, now I am adding a subpanel from the wokshop panel to another unattatched building. I believe I need to pull 2 legs plus neutral and ground rod that panel; is that correct?

    Man, I learned a lot from all of your discussions!

    Thanks,

    ANY detached structure with a feeder MUST have a grounding electrode.

    DO NOT omit the ground wire run with the feeders. Keep it and keep the grounds and neutrals separate in the panels.
