How to install Eaton ground bar

• Power down and unplug all equipment before beginning installation to ensure safe handling of grounding components and to prevent accidental energization during work.
• Plan the installation location along the equipment rack where grounds will converge, aiming for a central position that minimizes conductor lengths and angles, and reduces strain on cables.
• Mount the copper ground bar securely to the rack using appropriate hardware compatible with your rack system. Ensure a solid mechanical connection to minimize resistance and maintain a robust grounding path.
• Attach grounding conductors to the bar with suitable lugs or terminals, tightening to the manufacturer’s torque specifications. If an isolator is required, install it between the bar and the rack to achieve the desired electrical isolation.
• Inspect the completed installation for clean connections, no loose conductors, and proper routing. Verify continuity to the rack grounding path with a multimeter, and confirm a low-resistance, continuous ground throughout the rack.

Frequently asked questions
