2. Electrical conduit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_conduit

   Couplings connect two pieces of conduit together. Sometimes the fittings are considered sufficiently conductive to bond (electrically unite) the metal conduit to a metal junction box (thus sharing the box's ground connection); other times, grounding bushings are used which have bonding jumpers from the bushing to a grounding screw on the box. [13]

3. Bushing (electrical) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bushing_(electrical)

   Insulated bushings can be installed either indoor, or outdoor, and the selection of insulation will be determined by the location of the installation and the electrical service duty on the bushing. For a bushing to work successfully over many years, the insulation must remain effective both in composition and design shape and will be key ...

4. Earthing system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earthing_system

   The US National Electrical Code permitted the use of the supply neutral wire as the equipment enclosure connection to ground from 1947 to 1996 for ranges (including separate cooktops and ovens) and from 1953 to 1996 for clothes dryers, whether plug-in or permanently fixed, provided that the circuit originated in the main service panel. Normal ...

5. Bonding jumper - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonding_jumper

   [2] Some codes require a bonding jumper to be pulled into non-metallic conduit or in electrical metallic tubing that may be exposed to corrosion or mechanical damage. In North American electrical codes, an important bonding jumper is found in main electrical panels, where the system neutral conductor is connected to earth ground. This must be ...

6. Pothead - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pothead

   A pothead is a type of insulated electrical terminal used for transitioning between overhead line and underground high-voltage cable or for connecting overhead wiring to equipment like transformers. [1] Its name comes from the process of potting or encapsulation of the conductors inside the terminal's insulating bushing.

7. Ring ground - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_ground

   The ring ground will usually encircle the entire building that it is trying to protect. The ring ground is used as the base of the entire building's ground system, and all components of the building's ground system, including the building structure, are connected to the ground ring.
