Please clarify something for me...
If I run a bare ground through a rigid conduit, I believe I am required to bond the conduit to the bare conductor to prevent parallel paths to ground and prevent a choke at the point of conductor emerging from the pipe. This would be true for a grounding electrode conductor.
But what if the bare ground is in a rigid conduit and the intent of the installation is to bring all steel parts of the building to the same potential by bonding everything together. Will the ground wires emerging from this installation still need to be bonded to the conduit by means of a special fitting or a grounding bushing? If so where can I find this in the NEC?
