hello joanne,
sorry took so long to reply but puter was down,
the reasion that the code wasd chainged from 3 wire to 4 wire was for unbonded panels, what this means is the nutural and ground are not bonded together in the service as in the case of a sub panel in this situation u were eather makeing the nutural the ground as well as nutural whin tied to nutural bar and vice versa if to ground bar. with the 4 wire u have a nutural and a ground in addition to the 2 hots.
