Ross Engineering Personal Grounding Rods are designed to
temporarily ground or discharge (with current limiting at higher currents)
electronic equipment and apparatus that could present a safety problem to
personnel. They are not for powerline use. The rods can be hooked on to HV cables, terminals,
and other points where contact will ground the devices involved. They are
designed to conform to OSHA clearance requirements and can be provided
with the correct handle and cable length to keep personnel away from
hazardous high voltage. Handles to 12 feet and any length grounding cable
are available. Handles over 5 feet are in sections of 1.5ft. which can be
assembled up to 12ft. Grounding cable is AWG #8 or #10 Gauge Superflex
with transparent PVC insulation with up to 30kV PK test, Translucent white
Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene insulation is also available for wide
ambient temperature requirements from -65° C
to +200° C.
