few topics are more important to an electrical installation and to an electrical worker than grounding and bonding. Proper, code-compliant grounding and bonding is essential for a safe electrical installation and will serve two principal functions; facilitate the operation of the circuit overcurrent protective device through a reliable, low-impedance path as well as maintaining equipment at the same or close to the same potential as earth in addition to the surrounding conductive surfaces. The textbook is uniquely designed to follow the installation the way a contractor and electrical worker would install the grounding and bonding system in actual practice. Topics covered include "traditional" topics such as service, feeder, and branch circuit grounding and bonding, as well as more specialized topics such as grounding and bonding in health care facilities, hazardous locations, and lightning protection to name a few.
