Optical cable terminal pole grounding

Follow these steps at each cable entry point and termination location to achieve a compliant, safe ground bond: Identify metallic components. Strip back approximately 6–8 inches of the outer jacket using a cable slitter or ringing tool. Visually identify armor, strength. Overhead ground wire composite optical cable (OPGW) should be reliably grounded at th...
