Test Bond

Applications

• Grounding and Bonding Systems: Ensuring the effectiveness of bonding connections in grounding systems is critical for electrical safety. Proper bonding of metallic components, such as electrical panels, conduits, pipes, and equipment, helps prevent dangerous potential differences and ensures that fault currents flow safely to the Earth.


• Lightning Protection Systems: In lightning protection systems, test bonds are performed to verify that conductive components, such as air terminals (lightning rods), down conductors, and grounding electrodes, are securely bonded to provide a reliable path for lightning current to discharge safely into the ground.


• Electrical Equipment and Machinery: Test bonds are often conducted in industrial settings to ensure proper bonding between metallic parts of electrical equipment and machinery. This helps mitigate the risk of electrostatic discharge (ESD) and reduces the potential for electrical interference or damage to sensitive electronics.
