50 amp wiring
this may sound dumb but can you wire the neutral and ground to the same ground bar in the electrical box.

The easy way to check your system.
After removing the cover, look where the electricians put the grounds and white wires. If this is the 'meter' panel, then the grounds and white wires will be attached to the same bussbars.
If this is a subpanel, then the white bussbar will be on one side, the ground in another location. You will have several wires going to the panel, 2-3 to the center bussbars and the circuit breakers going out of the panel (or a main circuit breaker) and the white wire to the white bussbar, the ground wire to the grounding bussbar.
