Read the electrical code and don't energize the ground system . Don't run neutral current on the ground system. Don't shock the livestock with waters, feeders, stalls and equipment that is elevated above earth potential . Don't be bonding the neutral bar to earth at remote panels. Use four wire to supply services instead of three wire.
FAILED! Not even a slippery diversion, just out right dancing around your wrong statement of, "Neutral does not connect to the water pipe." You either can't read or comprehend the code or just plain dense!
You still are not getting it. The bond to the water pipe, well casing, ground rod etc is with a bare copper wire. The neutral is a white insulated current carrying conductor. You don't know enough about electricity to tell the difference.
You said, ""Neutral does not connect to the water pipe." ". Now I have clearly shown that there is a wire from the neutral bar in the panel (to which neutral connects) to the water pipe. Now if that doesn't connect neutral to the water pipe, pray tell, what the h3!! would it take? A 4x4 copper bar? I don't give a rat's patotie what color you make that wire cover, the fact remains that the neutral conductor coming into that service is in FACT connected to the damn water pipe. Up until now I have given you the benefit of the doubt & humored your obstinate attitude, but finally I'm realizing that you are just simply ignorant! Copper to copper & you claim "no connection". Beyond ignorant, just a plain DA! Everybody else understands the connection & you do too, but are desperately trying, unsuccessfully to save face for the DA statement that, ""Neutral does not connect to the water pipe."
Is neutral current supposed to flow through that bare ground wire from the water pipe to the panel bus bar ?
Current is not supposed to flow thru the ground wire but can if the neutral is messed up between the main breaker panel and the utility company's transformer.
Lets take this thread out of neutral and put it in drive?
