Grounding of lightning distribution box
Attach a ground wire from one of the threaded studs (A) at the bottom of the housing, to the mounting plate (B). Safety of Personnel: By safely channeling fault currents into the ground, proper grounding helps to reduce the risk of electric shock to personnel. This helps to reduce the potential difference that exists between conductive parts and the earth. 26 mm 2 (10 AWG) ground wire must be used, and in all other markets a 6 mm 2 must be used. Abstract: Bonding, Grounding and Surge Protection are integral parts of a topologically shielded lightning protection system for reasons of codes compliance, good engineeering practices and safety.
