Cable Tray Ground Clamps
Burndy ground clamps are designed to connect copper wires to a thick bar in grounding and bonding systems. These ground clamps feature copper alloy construction with tin plating for high conductivity and corrosion resistance. They have a cable tray and a barrel nut to connect copper wires to the thick bar. Choose from a wide range of cable tray ground clamps, available for conductor sizes ranging from 6 AWG to 250 kcmil.
Frequently Asked Questions
How are cable tray ground clamps installed?
The cable tray ground clamps are installed by attaching them to the cable tray and connecting the ground conductor to the clamp using a bolt or other connector.
How do cable tray ground clamps work?
Cable tray ground clamps have a mechanism that tightly fastens the clamp to the cable tray, forming a low-resistance electrical connection. The clamp creates a clear passage for electrical currents to travel directly to the grounding system, aiding appropriate grounding and allowing the safe dissipation of fault currents.
How do I select the right cable tray ground clamp for my application?
Major factors include the type & size of the cable tray, the grounding system requirements and any industry specific standards or regulations.
