B-LINE GS416 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the Eaton B-Line GS416 grounding strap used for?
The GS416 is a grounding strap for control enclosures that have to meet C.S.A. requirements. It bonds the enclosure door or panel back to the enclosure body so the whole assembly stays at ground potential when the door swings open. It is UL Listed.
2) How long is the B-Line GS416 grounding strap, and will it reach across a swinging enclosure door?
The GS416 measures 16 inches, with a .375 inch diameter dimension on the strap. That length gives enough slack for a hinged door to open fully without straining the bond. Measure from your door ground stud to the body stud with the door at full swing before you commit.
3) Is the GS416 a single strap or a kit with mounting hardware?
It ships as a drop shield kit under part number GS416, weighing .144 lb. Plan your order around the ground studs or tapped holes already in the enclosure, since the strap lands on the existing bonding points.
4) Do I need a bonding strap on an enclosure door if the hinges are metal?
For control enclosures built to C.S.A. requirements, hinges are not accepted as the bonding path, which is exactly the gap the GS416 fills. Any door carrying mounted devices, pilot lights, or operators needs a dedicated ground conductor back to the enclosure body.
5) What part number do I order for the Eaton B-Line 16 inch enclosure grounding strap?
Order it as B-Line GS416. That is the manufacturer part number for the 16 inch grounding strap kit used on C.S.A. control enclosures.
