been, what you are calling ground is really an Equipment BONDING Conductor. Driving a ground rod and connecting to it thinking it will ground and make the system safe could KILL someone. Bonding is what the green or bare wire in a branch circuit does, and this wire needs to end up in the source pannel. Then when there is a short in the circuit the the bonding conductor allows current back to pannel so the breaker instatly sees 6 times the rated value of the breaker and trips or turns off.
So the bus bar and ground are not the same? Where does the ground go?
