Panduit GC-18A-X – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What size grounding conductor can I land in a Panduit GC-18A-X clamp?
It takes 6 AWG through 250 kcmil, so it covers most grounding electrode conductor sizes from a #6 bonding jumper up to a 250 kcmil service ground. Anything smaller than 6 AWG will not seat properly.
2) Can I use the GC-18A-X on a ground rod?
No. It is a type GC clamp built to bond conduit pipe or water tube, not ground rods. For a driven rod you need a rod clamp rated for that use. On pipe and tube it does cover grounding electrode conductor connections in utility and ground grid work.
3) Will an aluminum grounding clamp work on copper conductor and copper water pipe?
The GC-18A-X is dual rated, so it is suitable for either copper or aluminum conductor. The body is aluminum with a tin-plated finish, which is what keeps the dissimilar-metal contact from corroding and holds a low-resistance connection over time.
4) How much room do I need around the pipe to install a GC-18A-X clamp?
The clamp measures 3.75 inches (95.3 mm) overall length and 0.81 inch (20.6 mm) overall width, so plan on roughly four inches of clear pipe and a bit of wrench swing. Tight riser closets and pipes hugging a wall are where this gets checked.
5) Can I buy the Panduit GC-18A-X as a single clamp or only by the box?
Minimum order is one piece, so you can pick up a single clamp for a service call. The manufacturer's standard package is 10 pieces if you are buying for a job.
6) Does the Panduit GC-18A-X meet Buy American requirements for a federal or public project?
It is ARRA compliant and the country of origin is the United States, which is what procurement on federally funded work normally asks for on grounding hardware.
7) Is a tin-plated aluminum clamp okay for an outdoor or direct-buried ground grid?
The GC-18A-X is built for utility and ground grid service, and the tin plating over the aluminum body is there to resist corrosion and hold a stable connection in that environment. It is the same clamp used for conduit and water tube bonding on commercial and industrial installs.
8) Does this Panduit grounding clamp carry a Prop 65 cancer warning or contain mercury?
No on both counts. The GC-18A-X is flagged no for California Prop 65 cancer and carries no mercury content, and it is not classed as hazardous material for shipping.
