Has 8/2 romex with a#10 bare ground wire ever been allowed to feed a range receptacle? I saw this installation today in a modular home that is a 1979 and that romex was installed by the manufacturer of the home. Is this not supposed to be a 4 wire circuit? Was this ever allowed in a regular stick built house? All I have seen in my area is SEU used for this purpose and the neutral is bare.Bottom line this is installed and they need to replace the range with a new one. So can this be used with a 3 wire cord with the stove ground link attached to the range and the bare #10 used as the neutral and ground for the circuit? Code references and comments please.
