ilikewires, you clearly don't have a clue what you are doing. It's a shame that you are raping someone by stealing their money and doing incorrect, dangerous, and illegal work.

Ilkewires,
You are construction related but not specifically an electrician. You have asked a specific question, but there is a good chance that the owner has done other things wrong that you have missed.
An electrician would tell you that connecting a true neutral (grounded) wire from the panel to a ground terminal at the heater is totally wrong, against code, and unsafe.
What else may be wrong that the inspector will find, or worse, that the inspector will not find?
