Course: Telecommunications II (1006-II) > Section: Practicing Cabling and Splicing

Construction should include

- identifying standards and codes applicable to providing a grounding and bonding system
- identifying wire, connectors, and components to be used in establishing a grounding and bonding system
- selecting tools needed to construct a grounding and bonding system
- installing connectors used on grounding and bonding conductors
- interconnecting grounding conductors and components to form the grounding and bonding subsystem.

Process/Skill Questions:

- What documents govern the installation of the grounding and bonding subsystem in a structured cable system?
- What is the importance of installing a proper grounding and bonding subsystem?
- Why does the NEC dedicate an entire article to grounding and bonding?
- Where would you find guidance for component selection for a grounding and bonding subsystem?
