  • Abstract
    The basic principle of safety grounding for the protection of workmen must be complemented by adequate grounding devices. Because of the great importance of these devices their adequacy should be proved by tests whenever 1) their design is changed although the change supposedly is an improvement; 2) system condition changes have accumulated beyond previously established limits; and 3) the slightest doubt about the reliability of a particular design has arisen.
