Kenny Clamp Compression Connector From Galvan Electrical Meets NEC Requirements for Bonding Separately Derived Systems, Panel Boards and Enclosures
HARRISBURG, N.C. (PRWEB) June 15, 2016 -- The new improved Kenny Clamp connector from Galvan Industries provides a superior method for bonding and grounding separately derived systems, panel boards and enclosures as required by the latest editions of the National Electrical Code (NEC).
The Kenny Clamp, available now for immediate delivery from Galvan, easily and safely bonds grounding electrode conductors to panel boards, switchboards, cutout boxes, metallic conduit and transformer enclosures.
The Kenny Clamp is designed to be installed through a 1/2-inch knockout with paint removed. It is held in place with a steel locknut. The grounding electrode conductor is then inserted through the Kenny Clamp and secured by tightening the compression nut, meeting the applicable requirements of NEC 250.8 and NEC 312.5(A).
Available in 10 different solid and stranded wire configurations, the patented Kenny Clamp is UL 486A listed for connectors and complies with UL 467 requirements for grounding and bonding.
Kenny Clamps replace sheet metal screws or non-listed connectors for grounding enclosures - neither of which is NEC-compliant. Thanks to their easy installation, Kenny Clamps actually save time for installers while enhancing connection integrity and safety.
