Stallcup's® Electrical Grounding and Bonding Simplified, 2008

James G. Stallcup

Gain a firm understanding of the National Electrical Code® and how it applies to grounding and bonding techniques with the 2008 Edition of Stallcup's® Electrical Grounding and Bonding Simplified.

Based on the 2008 NEC®, this hands-on guide illustrates Code provisions concerning circuit and system grounding; grounding electrode systems and electrode conductors; enclosure, raceway, and service cabling grounding; bonding; equipment grounding and equipment grounding conductors; and much more.

Intuitively arranged so general requirements are introduced before more specific and complex topics, this text places grounding and bonding into proper perspective, helping users gain a foundational knowledge of the topic.

With numerous illustrations and figures to clarify proper installation and application procedures Stallcup's® is an essential resource for electricians.

• Definitions for grounding and bonding
• Permitted methods for connection of grounding and bonding equipment
• Grounding of separately derived systems
• Sizing grounding electrode conductors
• Sizing main and system bonding jumper
• Grounded systems for separate buildings and structures
