Ja, i de flesta jurisdiktioner.
NEC 2014
2014-versionen av NEC har ändrats till 250,130 (C), som nu låter dig ansluta till jordledningsutrustningens jordledare för en annan grenkrets, så länge den härrör från samma hölje. Den nya texten lyder som följer:
National Electrical Code 2014
Article 250 - Grounding and Bonding
VII. Methods of Equipment Grounding
250.130 Equipment Grounding Conductor Connections. Equipment grounding conductor connections at the source of separately derived
systems shall be made in accordance with 250.30(A)(1). Equipment
grounding conductor connections at service equipment shall be made as
indicated in 250.130(A) or (B). For replacement of non–grounding-type
receptacles with grounding-type receptacles and for branch-circuit
extensions only in existing installations that do not have an
equipment grounding conductor in the branch circuit, connections shall
be permitted as indicated in 250.130(C).
(C) Nongrounding Receptacle Replacement or Branch Circuit Extensions. The equipment grounding conductor of a grounding-type
receptacle or a branch-circuit extension shall be permitted to be
connected to any of the following:
(1) Any accessible point on the grounding electrode system as described in 250.50
(2) Any accessible point on the grounding electrode conductor
(3) The equipment grounding terminal bar within the enclosure where the branch circuit for the receptacle or branch circuit originates
(4) To an equipment grounding conductor that is part of another branch circuit that originates from the enclosure where the branch circuit for the receptacle or branch circuit originates
(5) For grounded systems, the grounded service conductor within the service equipment enclosure.
(6) For ungrounded systems, the grounding terminal bar within the service equipment enclosure
Så om ditt område har antagit NEC 2014 kan du ansluta en jordledare till jordledaren från en annan filkrets, så länge båda kretsarna kommer från samma panel.
NEC 2011
Beroende på vilken kod som har antagits i ditt område kan du kanske inte låna jordledaren från en annan krets.
Här är vad NEC 2011 har att säga om att ersätta behållare utan utrustning.
National Electrical Code 2011

Vilket innebär att du kan lägga till en jordledare, men bara vid eller före servicepanelen.
OBS:
Jordningselektrodesystemet (av vilket jordningselektroden är en del), dos INTE inkluderar jordkretsutrustning jordningsledare. Jordningselektrodesystemet är en samling ledare som används för att ansluta serviceutrustningen till jorden, och är typiskt belägen vid eller nära tjänsteingången.

National Electrical Code 2011
Article 406 - Receptacles, Cord Connectors, and Attachment Plugs (Caps)
406.4 General Installation Requirements. Receptacle outlets shall be located in branch circuits in accordance with Part III of Article
210. General installation requirements shall be in accordance with 406.4(A) through (F).
(C) Methods of Grounding. The equipment grounding conductor contacts of receptacles and cord connectors shall be grounded by
connection to the equipment grounding conductor of the circuit
supplying the receptacle or cord connector.
(D) Replacements. Replacement of receptacles shall comply with 406.4(D)(1) through (D)(6) as applicable. Arc-fault circuit-interrupter and ground-fault circuit-interrupter type receptacles shall be installed in a readily accessible location.
(1) Grounding-Type Receptacles. Where a grounding means exists in the receptacle enclosure or an equipment grounding conductor is
installed in accordance with 250.130(C), grounding-type receptacles
shall be used and shall be connected to the equipment grounding
conductor in accordance with 406.4(C) or 250.130(C). \
(2) Non–Grounding-Type Receptacles. Where attachment to an equipment grounding conductor does not exist in the receptacle
enclosure, the installation shall comply with (D)(2)(a), (D)(2)(b), or
(D)(2)(c).
(a) A non–grounding-type receptacle(s) shall be permitted to be replaced with another non–grounding-type receptacle( s).
(b) A non–grounding-type receptacle(s) shall be permitted to be replaced with a ground-fault circuit interrupter type of receptacle(s).
These receptacles shall be marked “No Equipment Ground.” An equipment
grounding conductor shall not be connected from the ground-fault
circuit interrupter type receptacle to any outlet supplied from the
ground-fault circuit-interrupter receptacle.
(c) A non–grounding-type receptacle(s) shall be permitted to be replaced with a grounding-type receptacle(s) where supplied through a
ground-fault circuit interrupter. Grounding-type receptacles supplied
through the groundfault circuit interrupter shall be marked “GFCI
Protected” and “No Equipment Ground.” An equipment grounding conductor
shall not be connected between the grounding type receptacles.
(3) Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupters. Ground-fault circuit-interrupter protected receptacles shall be provided where
replacements are made at receptacle outlets that are required to be so
protected elsewhere in this Code.
(4) Arc-Fault Circuit-Interrupter Protection. Where a receptacle outlet is supplied by a branch circuit that requires arc-fault circuit interrupter protection as specified elsewhere in this Code, a replacement receptacle at this outlet shall be one of the following:
(1) A listed outlet branch circuit type arc-fault circuit interrupter
receptacle.
(2) A receptacle protected by a listed outlet branch circuit
type arc-fault circuit interrupter type receptacle.
(3) A receptacle protected by a listed combination type
arc-fault circuit interrupter type circuit breaker
(5) Tamper-Resistant Receptacles. Listed tamper resistant receptacles shall be provided where replacements are made at receptacle outlets that are required to be tamper-resistant elsewhere in this Code.
(6) Weather-Resistant Receptacles. Weather-resistant receptacles shall be provided where replacements are made at receptacle outlets that are required to be so protected elsewhere in this Code.
