SAMSON OCEANFRONT PARK <br />CITY OF SUNNY ISLES <br />TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS <br /> <br />GROUNDING AND BONDING 16060 - 2 <br /> <br />A. For insulated conductors, comply with Division 16 Section "Conductors and Cables." <br /> <br />B. Material: Copper, 98% conductivity. <br /> <br />C. Equipment Grounding Conductors: Insulated with green-colored insulation. <br /> <br />D. Isolated Ground Conductors: Insulated with green-colored insulation with yellow stripe. On feeders <br /> with isolated ground, use colored tape, alternating bands of green and yellow tape to provide a minimum <br /> of three bands of green and two bands of yellow. <br /> <br />E. Grounding Electrode Conductors: Stranded cable. <br /> <br />F. Underground Conductors: Bare, tinned, stranded, or solid as indicated. <br /> <br />G. Bare Copper Conductors: Comply with the following: <br />1. Solid Conductors: ASTM B 3. <br />2. Assembly of Stranded Conductors: ASTM B 8. <br />3. Tinned Conductors: ASTM B 33. <br /> <br />H. Copper Bonding Conductors: As follows: <br />1. Bonding Cable: 28 kcmil, 14 strands of No. 17 AWG copper conductor, 1/4 inch in diameter. <br />2. Bonding Conductor: No. 4 or No. 6 AWG, stranded copper conductor as required. <br />3. Bonding Jumper: Bare copper tape, braided bare copper conductors, terminated with copper <br /> ferrules; 1-5/8 inches wide and 1/16 inch thick. <br /> <br />I. Grounding Bus: Bare, annealed copper bars of rectangular cross section, with insulators. <br /> <br />2.3 <br /> <br />CONNECTOR PRODUCTS <br />A. Comply with IEEE 837 and UL 467; listed for use for specific types, sizes, and combinations of <br /> conductors and connected items. <br /> <br />B. Connectors: Bolted-pressure-type connectors or compression type as indicated. <br />1. Pressure Connectors: High-conductivity plated <br />2. Bolted Clamps: Heavy-duty bronze <br /> <br />C. Welded Connectors: Exothermic-welded type, in kit form, and selected per manufacturer's written <br /> instructions. <br /> <br />2.4 <br /> <br />GROUNDING ELECTRODES <br />A. Ground Rods: Copper-clad steel. <br /> <br />B. Ground Rods: Sectional type; copper-clad steel. <br />1. Size: ¾” in diameter by 120 inches. <br /> <br />PART 3 - EXECUTION <br /> <br />3.1 <br /> <br />APPLICATION <br />A. Use only copper conductors for both insulated and bare grounding conductors in direct contact with earth, con- <br />crete, masonry, crushed stone and similar materials. <br /> <br />B. In raceways, use insulated equipment grounding conductors. <br />
