Compression Connectors
When connecting cable to ground rod for direct burial or in concrete, the con-
nector shall be wrought copper with minimum conductivity of 99% I.A.C.S., such
as Thomas & Betts series GR12-306. Hex compression with die code embossing
shall be used.
• Figure-8 connectors
• Hex compression intimately bonds
cable directly to ground rod.
• Conforms to IEEE std. 837
• U.L. 467

TYPE TBGS — Structural Grounding Stud(s)
These ground studs may be welded
to steel structures with minimal
construction welding equipment and
connected to grounding conductors
with the appropriate Thomas & Betts
grounding connectors. The knurled
portion of the stud will ensure excellent
mechanical pull-out and electrical
continuity for the integrity of the
grounding circuit.
