I typically call out when I find two grounded conductors attached to the same terminal on a bus bar as "improper condition. Each netral conductor should have it's own terminal". I had a client ask me why, and I started to think about various scenarios, but decided not to guess. So, I thought I would ask this forum for an educated answer to this.

Hmm...I think I have covered this issue MANY times.....So a search on 408.21 on this board......or check some of my older posts from my profile page and you may find it helpful. Too tired to go into it all over again....
