hi:

in a MGN (multigrounded neutral) system, are the primary and secondary
neutrals usually bonded? Y system, of course.

i double checked MGN:

***********
Multigrounded Neutral: A power system neutral conductor which is
connected to purposefully installed (made) electrodes or existing
electrodes at least four times per mile (1.6 km) in addition to the
grounding connections at individual services and each transformer
location.
**********

which is what i thought. i may have seen secondary neutral bonded to
primary, but i'm not sure. in this town the two are bonded and the
primary neutral is actually the strand of a triplex secondary with the
service drops bonded to it.

uh, kinda cheesy, IMNSHO.

TIA,
mike
