Maybe I misunderstand the question but aren't we talking about the grounded conductor on each side of the transformer?

Don't you usually bond all the grounding conductors together?

well, that's what i've been used to doing, but i've been confronted by what is either a demographic electrical standard (from the DC area) , or i've simply been doing it wrong for 2+ decades

so here's the deal>

(you'll please pardon the blue noodle, white or grey wouldn't show up)

I'm used to floating the noodle through on smaller installs, typically 30-50KVA stuff for me

I'm told this isn't correct, and only the creation of a noodle flys

Further, it just seems to me that, if we go the SDS / GEC route, it's not only more work, if it's done repetitively within any given steel structure , i'd been turning the whole place into one big noodle
