In this Episode of Ask the Grounding Experts, E&S Grounding Solutions President David Stockin discusses the Top 3 areas of improvement that are needed in Article 250, the Grounding Section, of the National Electrical Code (NEC).
In particular, the importance of installing a copper wire in branch circuits instead of using steel conduit is discussed. In addition, the human safety reasons for always bonding the steel rebar in concrete (concrete encased electrodes) and the need to use copper in Liu of building steel for down conductors and grounding electrode conductors is also examined. A few small adjustments to the National Electrical Code could help to dramatically reduce electrocutions, save lives, improve reliability, and reduce the costs of corrosion on our infrastructure.
