Sorry, this confused me. You drew the ground rod to meter box and the water meter to nuetral/ground bus as 2 different conductors. Is this right or does 1 solid conductor go from the ground rod, meter, nuetral/ground bus, water meter?
The electic company clipped and pulled the meter. It is a really old one! Inside it has load and line side, the neutral is a small screw down and there is no breaks in the nuetral. There is also no place to bring a ground conductor. I need to bring new 2AWG AL from the meter to the panel because they are short, How can I cut and install the nuetral and where should I bring the ground? Here is a pic for clarity...
We got all the parts today and I got their old fuse panel off the wall with existing circuits disconnected and labeled. Tomorrow I am going to put in the new breaker panel. The panel uses flat head screws for the mains and torque is listed as 50"lbs. I have no idea how that would feel in a hand driven screw driver, I will just do it almost as hard as I can and then check them again after a few minutes.
Thanks Tom!
