Grounding of the units: Attach a ground wire from one of the threaded studs (A) at the bottom of the housing, to the mounting plate (B). The ground resistance between all system parts. This Applications Engineering Note (AE Note) discusses conventional bonding and grounding practices for conductive fiber optic cable and hardware installations within the scope of the National Electrical Code (NEC). Each DISTRIBUTION BOX and controller must be grounded. 26 mm 2 (10 AWG) ground wire must be used, and in all other markets a 6 mm 2 must be used. It can also be deployed in any cross-connect architecture and still provide clear, managed pathways for fiber. Whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting out, this comprehensive guide will give you practical. Our handbooks show you how to build fibre or copper infrastructure at your new residential or commercial development, and how to install Openreach equipment. Therefore, proper grounding is essential.
