In Stallcup's Electrical design Book, page 11-39, it specifically states "supplementary electrode". THAT is where I got it.You are probably looking it up in the NEC...which of course, is no fair...:-( I don't have a copy..:-(
I am confident you are correct...it is probably as you said...
What I like about Stallcup's book is it provides diagrams and shows exactly what code references apply...even if he doesn't use the exact words..
He is rather unbelievable, however..he knew NEC better than I know the back of my hand...it was amazing.
Course, I believe he chaired the chapter 4 NEC committee..
Cheers, John
