Question: Can the EGC for a 4-wire range or dryer receptacle be bonded to the juntion box rather than pulling it back to the panel and bonding?
Yes, the EGC for a 4-wire range or dryer receptacle can be bonded to the junction box if the junction box is properly bonded to the service panel. This is acceptable because the EGC is intended to provide a path for fault current to return to the service panel, and bonding the EGC to the junction box provides this path. Flag for review
