I am having one of those "i'm sure i understood this" moments. 99 NEC or CEC, single dwelling, meter/main breaker remote from house, ground rod at main breaker, ufer at house, ground and neutral seperate at house. Client is saying that it is an ungrounded system and does not need EGC from main to house. My understanding is that the EGC from main to house is required (non conductive conduit, buried) to protect wire and house panel as there is no real fault path back to main. Client is saying that it is an ungrounded system and that requires no egc. Main and house are 200' away from each other.
What is meant by ungrounded system and is it applicable here? Do not have my code books with me. Client showed me 99 nec reference,ungrounded systems. need both code and explanation for tomorrow, or salt for my humble pie.
thanks in advance
