NEC 2008 Grounding & Bonding

Introduction

Every year thousands of people are injured or killed from electrical shocks/contacts. They are exposed to dangers such as electric shock, electrocution, burns, fires, and explosions. The proper grounding of electrode system, conductors, equipment, and equipment conductors can help us in reducing the number of casualties.

In order to understand grounding and bonding effectively, the course is divided into the following two segments:

  1. Grounding Electrode Systems and Grounding Electrode Conductors
  2. Equipment Grounding and Equipment Grounding Conductors

Moreover, this course covers the topics such as grounding electrodes; resistance of rod, pipe, and plate electrodes; methods of connecting the grounding or bonding conductor to the grounding electrode; types of equipment grounding conductors; identification of equipment grounding conductors; and much more that will certainly help you in understanding the best way of grounding and bonding per the National Electrical Code (NEC) 2008 standards.
