Grounding the Components
3-2
Follow the grounding documentation and the steps below to ground
the components.
1.
Prepare and connect grounding conductors to the components.
a.
Determine which mounting point on the chassis you are going to
use to ground the components (some chassis have grounding
lugs; for other chassis, you have to use a mounting screw).
b.
Construct an equipment-grounding conductor for each
component. Make each one long enough to connect directly to
the ground bus. Keep the length to a minimum. Use the
specified wire and ring lugs.
c.
Connect one end of each conductor to each component and
leave the other end loose, as shown below.
