I am asking about grounding for an emergency power system a generator is diesel powered and serves 2 disconnects one 1600 amp and one 1200 amp disconnects. i need to know if i can use the building grounding system for these remote disconnects. i will also have a ground at the remote location where the disconnects are located. This is for a health care clinic.

RFA, avoid using all caps. It appears that you are SHOUTING at us.
Be sure to bond the grounded conductor to the grounding conductor at the generator per 250.30(A)(1).

Normally, yes, see 250.30(A)(4).

This could introduce some question marks for me, what with the critical areas and emergency systems and whatnot.
