REPLY:
That wasn't my question. Please forgive me if I wasn't clear enough.
My question was this: I understand why it is necessary to bond ground and
neutral together at the service box, but I don't understand why it is forbidden
to bond them together at the appliance.
There must be a scenario which causes danger but I just can't imagine what it
is.
