Grounding and Bonding
Learn more about why grounding and bonding is important and view the full product offering. 

Every Grounding Application is Unique. We Make Safe, Reliable, Quality Solutions to Meet Your Needs.

Grounding and bonding needs vary according to each specific application. The grounding and bonding requirements of telecom grounding, power system grounding for C&I systems, power utility substations, transmission and distribution systems, and cathodic and lightning protection can vary greatly. In all cases, the purpose of a high-quality grounding and bonding system is to:

• Protect people
• Provide protection in the event of unintentional contact between live conductors and bonded/grounded parts
• Ensure maximum safety from electrical system faults and lightning

nVent ERICO has the experts and experience to select the ideal grounding and bonding solution for your application from the ground up.

We Make Safe, Reliable, Quality Solutions to Meet Your Surge Protection Needs
Even with the best grounding and bonding system, electrical transient events and disturbances can cause a loss of electrical equipment and increase downtime. A coordinated surge protection system is crucial for ensuring protection during a major electrical event and prolonging the life of equipment by reducing the impact of low-magnitude transient events.

For both building power and low-voltage applications, nVent ERICO has the products and expertise for a comprehensive surge protection scheme on power and communication lines caused by lightning, building systems and other switching events. Our involvement in the industry predates the creation of the initial IEC and UL low-voltage surge protection standards, and we have been active in all major worldwide surge protective device (SPD) standards committees and industry bodies, including IEEE, IEC and UL.

Why Coordinated Surge Protection is Important
Lightning is the source of some of the largest magnitude transient events a facility will experience, but the largest number of damaging events are caused by power switching transients. Switching off inductive loads, such as motors, air conditioning plants, domestic appliances and even an office photocopier, can cause a transient of many thousands of volts.

Having a coordinated surge protection system to protect AC power feeders and data and communication systems is imperative in ensuring the reliable protection of structures, industrial and commercial operations, and personnel in the case of any electrical disturbance.
