Grounding and bonding.

Grounding electrode systems, bonding and counterpoise work, on their own or as part of a full system.

A copper conductor runs down a foundation wall to a ground rod in a trench

Grounding is the part of the path that carries a strike's energy into the earth. Bonding ties the metal on and in a building into that path. Every other part of a protection system depends on the two.

Where it applies

  • Electrodes for new construction
  • Bonding rooftop equipment, rails and steel
  • Counterpoise and ground rings
  • Systems that test outside spec

What is included

  • A review of soil and site conditions
  • An electrode layout for the structure
  • Bonds to equipment, rails and structural steel
  • Ground rings and counterpoise for larger structures
  • Ground resistance testing
A coil of bare copper conductor

Coordinated toNECNational Electrical Code

What you receive

Ground resistance test results, documented for your files.

Questions

Do you take grounding work without a full system?
Yes. Grounding and bonding can be a standalone project.
Our grounding tests outside spec. Can you fix it?
Improving ground resistance on existing systems is part of this service, as the Tulsa grid upgrade shows.
