Could someone please shed some light on this debated issue. Lets say I have a 2000 Amp, 3ph, 120/208V Wye connected service with 6 sets of 500MCM. My transformer is pad mounted and supplied by the utility. The conduit is PVC schedule 40. Of course I have 3 phases and 1 neutral per conduit. The question is.. Do I need to also pull in a fifth conductor for ground? I have seen this engineered both ways. Do I need the fifth conductor? If so, where does it terminate at the transformer? Does it make any difference if the conduit is Rigid Steel?
