The most important guideline is to ensure that we can achieve an electrical resistance of 10 ohms or less between electrically conductive plant equipment, including mobile plant, people and vehicles, and an &#8220;earth source&#8221; verified as a true grounding point. This point will have a low-resistance connection to the general mass of the earth and will transfer electrostatic charge from the equipment to the ground, regardless of how much static electricity is generated by the process. This, in turn, removes the static ignition risk from the processing area.   \n\nTo achieve a safe level of protection against electrostatic ignitions, we must provide an effective means of grounding the equipment. Historically, grounding portable items such as containers, vessels, vehicles, and railcars has been achieved with basic clamps assumed to make a direct connection to the equipment. <\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-column stk-block-column stk-column stk-block stk-5bc94ec\" data-v=\"4\" data-block-id=\"5bc94ec\"><div class=\"stk-column-wrapper stk-block-column__content stk-container stk-5bc94ec-container stk--no-background stk--no-padding\"><div class=\"stk-block-content stk-inner-blocks stk-5bc94ec-inner-blocks\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-image stk-block-image stk-block stk-fcf2daf\" data-block-id=\"fcf2daf\"><style>.stk-fcf2daf .stk-img-wrapper{width:100% !important;height:395px !important;}.stk-fcf2daf .stk-img-wrapper img{object-fit:contain !important;}<\/style><figure><span class=\"stk-img-wrapper stk-image--shape-stretch\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"stk-img wp-image-2440\" src=\"https:\/\/www.malux.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/rebplierclamp-withhytrel_spiral_cable_20063fa7.jpg\" width=\"855\" height=\"550\" alt=\"uk-guidelines-29_e45c5a86\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.malux.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/rebplierclamp-withhytrel_spiral_cable_20063fa7.jpg 855w, https:\/\/www.malux.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/rebplierclamp-withhytrel_spiral_cable_20063fa7-300x193.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.malux.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/rebplierclamp-withhytrel_spiral_cable_20063fa7-768x494.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 855px) 100vw, 855px\" \/><\/span><\/figure><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-columns stk-block-columns stk-block stk-af86161 stk-block-background\" data-block-id=\"af86161\"><style>.stk-af86161 {background-color:#f5f5f5 !important;padding-top:80px !important;padding-bottom:80px !important;margin-bottom:0px !important;}.stk-af86161:before{background-color:#f5f5f5 !important;}@media screen and (max-width: 767px){.stk-af86161 {padding-top:60px !important;padding-bottom:60px !important;}}<\/style><div class=\"stk-row stk-inner-blocks stk-block-content stk-content-align stk-af86161-column\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-column stk-block-column stk-column stk-block stk-6c6d768\" data-v=\"4\" data-block-id=\"6c6d768\"><style>.stk-6c6d768 {max-width:1024px !important;min-width:auto !important;margin-right:auto !important;margin-left:auto !important;}@media screen and (max-width: 1023px){.stk-6c6d768 {max-width:90% !important;min-width:auto !important;}}<\/style><div class=\"stk-column-wrapper stk-block-column__content stk-container stk-6c6d768-container stk--no-background stk--no-padding\"><div class=\"stk-block-content stk-inner-blocks stk-6c6d768-inner-blocks\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-columns stk-block-columns stk-block stk-4840df2\" data-block-id=\"4840df2\"><style>.stk-4840df2 {margin-bottom:30px !important;}.stk-4840df2-column{--stk-columns-spacing:0px !important;--stk-column-gap:60px !important;}@media screen and (max-width: 767px){.stk-4840df2 {margin-bottom:0px !important;}}<\/style><div class=\"stk-row stk-inner-blocks stk-block-content stk-content-align stk-4840df2-column\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-column stk-block-column stk-column stk-block stk-c6304a1\" data-v=\"4\" data-block-id=\"c6304a1\"><div class=\"stk-column-wrapper stk-block-column__content stk-container stk-c6304a1-container stk--no-background stk--no-padding\"><div class=\"stk-block-content stk-inner-blocks stk-c6304a1-inner-blocks\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-text stk-block-text stk-block stk-8dc2b7d\" data-block-id=\"8dc2b7d\"><style>@media screen and (max-width: 1023px){.stk-8dc2b7d {margin-bottom:30px !important;}}<\/style><p class=\"stk-block-text__text\">Issues such as product build-up and protective coatings (which can prevent contact with the grounding clamp\u2019s connection points), combined with rusty and degraded cable connections, led the industry to develop grounding indicators. \n\nStatus indicators (commonly referred to as static grounding systems) monitor the connection to the equipment and provide a visual reference to the worker as to whether they have a safe ground connection. A green light indicates that they can proceed with the process. \n\nIn addition to providing a monitored grounding circuit, many of these systems include output contacts that can be interlocked with the process. Typically, the grounding system\u2019s output contact will be interlocked with the equipment that controls the flow or processing of the product, ensuring that the equipment is grounded before the process that generates static electricity can begin. <\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-column stk-block-column stk-column stk-block stk-fd1b181\" data-v=\"4\" data-block-id=\"fd1b181\"><div class=\"stk-column-wrapper stk-block-column__content stk-container stk-fd1b181-container stk--no-background stk--no-padding\"><div class=\"stk-block-content stk-inner-blocks stk-fd1b181-inner-blocks\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-image stk-block-image stk-block stk-69fbea4\" data-block-id=\"69fbea4\"><style>.stk-69fbea4 .stk-img-wrapper{width:100% !important;height:395px !important;}.stk-69fbea4 .stk-img-wrapper img{object-fit:contain !important;}<\/style><figure><span class=\"stk-img-wrapper stk-image--shape-stretch\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"stk-img wp-image-2441\" src=\"https:\/\/www.malux.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/br-ez-app-drum-cmyk-0_7e80cc10.jpg\" width=\"828\" height=\"840\" alt=\"uk-guidelines-29_e45c5a86\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.malux.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/br-ez-app-drum-cmyk-0_7e80cc10.jpg 828w, https:\/\/www.malux.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/br-ez-app-drum-cmyk-0_7e80cc10-296x300.jpg 296w, https:\/\/www.malux.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/br-ez-app-drum-cmyk-0_7e80cc10-768x779.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 828px) 100vw, 828px\" \/><\/span><\/figure><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-columns stk-block-columns stk-block stk-290d95c stk-block-background\" data-block-id=\"290d95c\"><style>.stk-290d95c {background-color:#ffdc2e !important;padding-top:80px !important;padding-bottom:80px !important;margin-bottom:0px !important;}.stk-290d95c:before{background-color:#ffdc2e !important;}@media screen and (max-width: 767px){.stk-290d95c {padding-top:60px !important;padding-bottom:60px !important;}}<\/style><div class=\"stk-row stk-inner-blocks stk-block-content stk-content-align stk-290d95c-column\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-column stk-block-column stk-column stk-block stk-c0064d8\" data-v=\"4\" data-block-id=\"c0064d8\"><style>.stk-c0064d8 {max-width:1024px !important;min-width:auto !important;margin-right:auto !important;margin-left:auto !important;}@media screen and (max-width: 1023px){.stk-c0064d8 {max-width:90% !important;min-width:auto !important;}}<\/style><div class=\"stk-column-wrapper stk-block-column__content stk-container stk-c0064d8-container stk--no-background stk--no-padding\"><div class=\"stk-block-content stk-inner-blocks stk-c0064d8-inner-blocks\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-columns stk-block-columns stk-block stk-f76f1b6\" data-block-id=\"f76f1b6\"><style>.stk-f76f1b6 {margin-bottom:30px !important;}.stk-f76f1b6-column{--stk-columns-spacing:0px !important;--stk-column-gap:60px !important;}@media screen and (max-width: 767px){.stk-f76f1b6 {margin-bottom:0px !important;--stk-col-order-1:2 !important;--stk-col-order-2:1 !important;}}<\/style><div class=\"stk-row stk-inner-blocks stk-block-content stk-content-align stk-f76f1b6-column\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-column stk-block-column stk-column stk-block stk-136d10e\" data-v=\"4\" data-block-id=\"136d10e\"><div class=\"stk-column-wrapper stk-block-column__content stk-container stk-136d10e-container stk--no-background stk--no-padding\"><div class=\"stk-block-content stk-inner-blocks stk-136d10e-inner-blocks\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-text stk-block-text stk-block stk-4f8ca96\" id=\"corem-lam-solorro-in-nus-nostempo\" data-block-id=\"4f8ca96\"><style>@media screen and (max-width: 1023px){.stk-4f8ca96 {margin-bottom:30px !important;}}<\/style><p class=\"stk-block-text__text\">For those tasked with controlling static ignition risks, the choices typically come down to basic clamps, cables, or static grounding systems. Static grounding systems offer the greatest control and protection against static ignition risks, particularly as they can monitor the connection to process equipment, provide operators with a visual indication of a positive ground connection, and shut down the process if the connection is compromised. <\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-column stk-block-column stk-column stk-block stk-a676585\" data-v=\"4\" data-block-id=\"a676585\"><div class=\"stk-column-wrapper stk-block-column__content stk-container stk-a676585-container stk--no-background stk--no-padding\"><div class=\"stk-block-content stk-inner-blocks stk-a676585-inner-blocks\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-text stk-block-text stk-block stk-f023713\" data-block-id=\"f023713\"><p class=\"stk-block-text__text\">Although most would prefer multiple levels of protection against electrostatic ignition risks, it can be difficult to find the budget for processes where many objects require static grounding protection.

For 15 years, Bond-Rites have made it possible to raise the safety level by giving workers a visual way to verify a solid electrical connection to the equipment throughout the process. \n\nBy using the well-known safety principles of GREEN for &#8220;SAFE TO GO&#8221;, Bond-Rites use a pulsing green LED to indicate when the equipment (e.g., the drum) has a resistance of 10 ohms or less. All Bond-Rites continuously monitor the connection to the equipment until the clamp is removed. The green &#8220;SAFE TO&#8221; concept is extremely easy for workers to use, enabling them to take responsibility for their own safety and that of their colleagues.  <\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-column stk-block-column stk-column stk-block stk-503c5b4\" data-v=\"4\" data-block-id=\"503c5b4\"><div class=\"stk-column-wrapper stk-block-column__content stk-container stk-503c5b4-container stk--no-background stk--no-padding\"><div class=\"stk-block-content stk-inner-blocks stk-503c5b4-inner-blocks\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-image stk-block-image stk-block stk-834f014\" data-block-id=\"834f014\"><style>.stk-834f014 .stk-img-wrapper{width:100% !important;height:395px !important;}.stk-834f014 .stk-img-wrapper img{object-fit:contain !important;}<\/style><figure><span class=\"stk-img-wrapper stk-image--shape-stretch\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"stk-img wp-image-2442\" src=\"https:\/\/www.malux.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/br-clamp-cmyk-0_eedb35b2.jpg\" width=\"827\" height=\"840\" alt=\"uk-guidelines-29_e45c5a86\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.malux.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/br-clamp-cmyk-0_eedb35b2.jpg 827w, https:\/\/www.malux.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/br-clamp-cmyk-0_eedb35b2-295x300.jpg 295w, https:\/\/www.malux.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/br-clamp-cmyk-0_eedb35b2-768x780.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 827px) 100vw, 827px\" \/><\/span><\/figure><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-columns stk-block-columns stk-block stk-ecec45c stk-block-background\" data-block-id=\"ecec45c\"><style>.stk-ecec45c {background-color:#f5f5f5 !important;padding-top:80px !important;padding-bottom:80px !important;margin-bottom:0px !important;}.stk-ecec45c:before{background-color:#f5f5f5 !important;}@media screen and (max-width: 767px){.stk-ecec45c {padding-top:60px !important;padding-bottom:60px !important;}}<\/style><div class=\"stk-row stk-inner-blocks stk-block-content stk-content-align stk-ecec45c-column\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-column stk-block-column stk-column stk-block stk-40f18ac\" data-v=\"4\" data-block-id=\"40f18ac\"><style>.stk-40f18ac {max-width:1024px !important;min-width:auto !important;margin-right:auto !important;margin-left:auto !important;}@media screen and (max-width: 1023px){.stk-40f18ac {max-width:90% !important;min-width:auto !important;}}<\/style><div class=\"stk-column-wrapper stk-block-column__content stk-container stk-40f18ac-container stk--no-background stk--no-padding\"><div class=\"stk-block-content stk-inner-blocks stk-40f18ac-inner-blocks\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-columns stk-block-columns stk-block stk-9526e04\" data-block-id=\"9526e04\"><style>.stk-9526e04 {margin-bottom:30px !important;}.stk-9526e04-column{--stk-columns-spacing:0px !important;--stk-column-gap:60px !important;}@media screen and (max-width: 767px){.stk-9526e04 {margin-bottom:0px !important;--stk-col-order-1:2 !important;--stk-col-order-2:1 !important;}}<\/style><div class=\"stk-row stk-inner-blocks stk-block-content stk-content-align stk-9526e04-column\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-column stk-block-column stk-column stk-block stk-20de38e\" data-v=\"4\" data-block-id=\"20de38e\"><div class=\"stk-column-wrapper stk-block-column__content stk-container stk-20de38e-container stk--no-background stk--no-padding\"><div class=\"stk-block-content stk-inner-blocks stk-20de38e-inner-blocks\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-text stk-block-text stk-block stk-b6a183f\" id=\"corem-lam-solorro-in-nus-nostempo\" data-block-id=\"b6a183f\"><style>@media screen and (max-width: 1023px){.stk-b6a183f {margin-bottom:30px !important;}}<\/style><p class=\"stk-block-text__text\">This article is the copyright of Newson Gale &#8211; \u00a9Copyright Newson Gale 2019.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-column stk-block-column stk-column stk-block stk-7zlnjkf\" data-v=\"4\" data-block-id=\"7zlnjkf\"><div class=\"stk-column-wrapper stk-block-column__content stk-container stk-7zlnjkf-container stk--no-background stk--no-padding\"><div class=\"stk-block-content stk-inner-blocks stk-7zlnjkf-inner-blocks\"><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Grounding equipment, such as grounding clamps and cables, dissipates static electricity and prevents discharges that can &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":7880,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"kunskapsbankskategori":[240],"class_list":["post-7879","kunskapsbankinlagg","type-kunskapsbankinlagg","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","kunskapsbankskategori-ex-industry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 -
