B-LINE GS88 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the Eaton B-Line GS88 grounding strap used for?
The GS88 is a grounding strap for control enclosures that have to meet a C.S.A. requirement. It bonds the door or a hinged panel back to the enclosure body so the door stays at ground potential when it swings open. Eaton B-Line catalogues it as a grounding device, and it is UL Listed.
2) What wire size and length does the B-Line GS88 grounding strap use?
It is built around 8 AWG wire, with an overall length of 8 inches and a .25 inch diameter at the terminations. Those 8 inches are what you have to work with between the door stud and the enclosure body, so check the swing clearance on a deep door before ordering.
3) Is a door grounding strap actually required on a control enclosure?
Where the installation is built to a C.S.A. requirement, the enclosure door needs to be bonded to the body, and a flexible strap like the GS88 is how that is done. Hinges alone are not treated as a reliable bonding path, which is why the strap is ordered as a separate part on control enclosures.
