QO and HOMELINE Load Centers
Resolution:
No. The National Electrical Code (NEC) does NOT allow for this and the article in the current code would read something similar to this; "Each grounded conductor shall terminate within the panelboard in an individual terminal that is not also used for another conductor. Exception: Grounded conductors of circuits with parallel conductors shall be permitted to terminate in a single terminal if the terminal is identified for connection of more than one conductor."
