GROUNDING & BONDING <br />FOR ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS <br />Section 16450 <br />15-1207 <br />B. Install grounding and bonding conductors concealed from view. <br />C. Install grounding well pipe with cover at each rod location. Install well pipe top <br />flush with finished grade. <br />D. Bond together metal siding not attached to grounded structure; bond to ground. <br />E. Install continuous grounding using underground cold water system and building <br />Steel as grounding electrode. Where water piping is not available, install artificial <br />station ground by means of driven rods or buried electrodes. <br />F. Permanently ground entire light and power system in accordance with NEC, <br />including service equipment, distribution panels, lighting panelboards, switch and <br />starter enclosures, motor frames, grounding type receptacles, and other exposed <br />non-current carrying metal parts of electrical equipment. <br />G. Accomplish grounding of electrical system by using insulated grounding <br />conductor installed with feeders and branch circuit conductors in conduits. Size <br />grounding conductors in accordance with NEC or as indicated on drawings. <br />Install from grounding bus of serving panel to ground bus of served panel, <br />grounding screw of receptacles, lighting fixture housing, light switch outlet boxes <br />or metal enclosures of service equipment. Ground conduits as necessary by <br />means of grounding bushings on terminations at panelboards and switchboards <br />to grounding bus. <br />H. Permanently attach equipment and grounding conductors prior to energizing <br />equipment. <br />3.5 FIELD QUALITY CONTROL <br />A. Provide visual and mechanical inspection in accordance with NET A A T S, 7.13. 1. <br />B. Perform electrical tests in accordance with NETA ATS, 7.13.2. <br />11.-ionsGrounding and Bonding: Perform inspect and tests listed in NETA ATS, <br />Section 7.13. <br />D. Perform ground resistance testing in accordance with IEEE 142. <br />E. Perform continuity testing in accordance with IEEE 142. <br />F.
