16 sq mm grounding wire for optical distribution box

Home / 16 sq mm grounding wire for optical distribution box

26 mm 2 (10 AWG) ground wire must be used, and in all other markets a 6 mm 2 must be used. Prysmian has a built-in multi-step quality assurance programme, which covers the entire production process from cable design and raw materials purchasing, to final inspecti tion for any single project. AFL AlumaCore OPGW (Optical Ground Wire) is preferred for its central aluminum pipe and color-coded fiber optic buffer tubes which simplify the splicing process while providing optimum fiber protection as well as long term product reliability. 16 mm (5/8 inch) diameter and 1x2400 mm long or 2x1200 mm copper weld ground rods with 70 mm2 copper conductor or bonded tinned copper steel (for MV Grounding) and 35 mm2 (for LV grounding) bare copper. Grounding of the units: Attach a ground wire from one of the threaded studs (A) at the bottom of the housing, to the mounting plate (B).

DISTRIBUTION BOX

Each DISTRIBUTION BOX and controller must be grounded. On the US market, a 5.26 mm 2 (10 AWG) ground wire must be used, and in all other markets a 6 mm 2 must be used.
