Traveling Ground Kit (71637)

DESCRIPTION

The grounding roller provides a means of maintaining a continuous ground connection to moving conductors such as strand, open wire, or pull line being placed from a stationary reel

The roller must be connected to a suitable ground by means of one of the 1/0 jumper cables provided in order to minimize the voltage on the conductors mentioned above in the event of an accidental contact with an energized power conductor. Works with strand from 1/4″ to 7/16″

KIT COMES COMPLETE WITH:

• An aluminum, three roller, traveling ground equipped with two 5/8 in. (16mm) buss bars for two jumper cables and clamps and two 1 in. (25mm) tie back holes in frame
• A jumper cable composed of 30′, 1/0, clear PVC jacketed, copper jumper cable with each end fitted with copper compression ferrules and two 5/8 in. (16mm) – NC threaded bronze grounding clamps
• A jumper cable composed of 2 ft (.61m), 1/0 clear PVC jacketed, copper jumper cable with each end fitted with copper compression ferrules and two 5/8 in. (16mm) – NC threaded bronze ground clamps
• An instruction booklet which outlines use of grounding kit as per OSHA requirements.
