Blackburn 3826 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What ground rod diameters does the Blackburn 3826 clamp fit?
The Blackburn 3826 covers ground rods from 1/2 inch to 1 inch diameter, so it handles the common 1/2, 5/8 and 3/4 inch driven rods used on service grounds without swapping clamp sizes. If your rod is larger than 1 inch, this is the wrong clamp.
2) What is the Blackburn 3826 ground clamp made of, and can I bury it in direct earth?
Body material is malleable iron. Malleable iron rod clamps are the standard choice for driven-rod connections, including below grade at the electrode, which is where most of these get installed. There is no insulation on the clamp; it is a bare metal-to-metal connection by design.
3) What is the manufacturer part number for this Blackburn ground rod clamp?
Blackburn model 3826 is the manufacturer part number, ordered as-is with no suffix. That is the number to quote when matching what is already installed on a site.
4) Is a ground rod clamp like the 3826 the right part for bonding to a water pipe?
No. The 3826 is a rod clamp, sized by rod diameter from 1/2 to 1 inch, and it clamps around a round driven electrode. For a metallic water pipe or other conduit you want a pipe ground clamp sized by pipe trade size, not a rod clamp.
5) Do I get one clamp or a box when I order Blackburn 3826?
Pricing and packaging are by the each, so one order quantity equals one clamp. Count your rods and order to match.
6) Is the Blackburn 3826 made in the USA for jobs with domestic sourcing requirements?
Country of origin is the United States. That matters on federal, state and other publicly funded work carrying domestic content requirements.
