Bill, do you mean a metallic conductor in addition to the normal third wire
(neutral) for a total of four conductors between the transformer and panel?

Thats the way I see it. The only difference I have with Gary is in the
connections between the panel and the transformer drop. There is an
earth connection at each end, and only at each end, but my supplier has
the added requirement of a metallic conductor between transformer
neutral and panel ground, as well.
