5.8 Grounding
At each tap, ensure that the drop cable’s ground wire is connected to
the tap’s grounding screw.
The tap’s grounding path should be separate from paths used for
motors, generators, welders, and other highcurrent industrial devices.
No other ground wires (from other devices) should be connected to the
tap’s grounding screw.
At the node device end of the drop cable, the drop cable’s ground wire
must be connected to the panel ground at the node site. This ground
connection must be made even if there is no node device connected to
the drop cable connector at the site.
