The new code section requires fencing to be bonded to the grounding electrode system if the fencing is within 16 ft. of any exposed electrical conductors or equipment. For these fences, a wire type bonding jumper is required as follows: Bonding jumpers are required at each fence corner and a

The nVent ERICO line of dual conductor clamps offers a full range of grounding products for fence, pipe and pedestal applications ranging from 0.5" –1.25" diameters. The clamps feature
Metal fences enclosing, and other metal structures in or surrounding, a substation with exposed electrical conductors and equipment shall be grounded and bonded to limit step, touch, and
Metallic fences enclosing, and other metal structures in or surrounding, a substation with exposed electrical conductors and equipment shall be grounded and bonded to limit step, touch, and transfer voltages.
Most galvanized steel rods use hot rolled steel with a tensile strength of 58,000+ psi. Higher tensile strength leads to less rod deformation during installation. The thickness and type of coating material determines
Convenient multi-purpose clamp designed to accommodate round conductors, flat conductors, ground rods and rebar; Stainless steel material with inner plate allows compatibility between
rod is generally higher than that for underground metal water piping. Consequently, a ground rod, or pair of ground rods, requires only a 6 AWG Cu GEC, while the GEC that connects to under-
Chain link fences, or any metal fence that isn''t already electrically charged, typically don''t need to be bonded or grounded when it''s installed. There are some universal codes, according to the
National Electrical Code Section 250.194 Grounding and Bonding of Fences and Other Metal Structures. Ground and bond the metal fences enclosing a substation and other metal structures in or surrounding it if
Ameristar was the first to successfully test steel powder coated fence to IEEE Grounding Standards, a critical feature for power utility substations. Matrix and Impasse are the first coated systems designed to minimize the system
Grounding. An effective electric fence requires good grounding. There is a lot of confusion and many misconceptions around the topic of grounding but don''t let that intimidate you. Here you
An adequate grounding system is essential for an effective electric fence. Unfortunately, poor grounding is a so stainless steel rather than galvanized ground rods should be used. In
You need 3'' (temporary electric fences) or 5-6'' (permanent electric fences) solid-core galvanised ground rods to ensure that the energy will be carried through the ground and back to the
