Does the steel wire in an optical fiber cable need to be grounded

Many fiber optic cables include metallic components — such as steel armoring, aluminum moisture barriers, copper strength members, or metallic messenger wires — that absolutely must be grounded to prevent electric shock, equipment damage, and fire hazards. While nonarmored fiber optic cables don't require grounding due to their nonconductive properties, grounding is crucial when using armored fiber optic cables. OK - A nearby lightning ground strike can cause enough of a voltage difference that a high. Any cable that includes any conductive metal must be properly grounded and bonded in conformance with the comprehensive references to the National Electrical Code (NEC), ANSI and IEEE and NFPA Standards for safety.

Fiber Optic Cable Grounding Wire for Distribution Box

26 mm 2 (10 AWG) ground wire must be used, and in all other markets a 6 mm 2 must be used. Grounding of the units:This Applications Engineering Note (AE Note) discusses conventional bonding and grounding practices for conductive fiber optic cable and hardware installations within the scope of the National Electrical Code (NEC). Fiber optic cable transmits data as light through glass or plastic strands, which means the fiber core itself carries no electrical current and requires no grounding. The current language regarding optical fiber cabling grounding found in the NFPA 70 NEC 2014 is as follows: " 770. 93 Grounding or Interruption of Non–Current-Carrying Metallic Members of Optical Fiber Cables.
