Hubbell HGRKTHC10 Rail Grounding Kit

Overview

The Hubbell HGRKTHC10 is a 19-inch copper grounding kit designed to mitigate electrostatic discharge (ESD) risks for sensitive electronic equipment mounted in standard 19-inch racks. This pack contains 10 individual kits, ensuring you have spares for multiple installations or future needs. Proper grounding is critical for preventing damage to components like network switches, servers, and surveillance equipment from static buildup, especially in industrial or automated environments.

Compatibility

This grounding kit is designed for use with standard 19-inch equipment racks. The copper strap and termination points are suitable for grounding the chassis of most rack-mounted devices, including network switches, NVRs, servers, and other IT or security hardware. It is intended for use with equipment that has a designated grounding point or a conductive chassis suitable for connection.

Installation Notes

Each HGRKTHC10 kit includes a copper grounding strap and the necessary hardware for attachment. Installation involves securing one end of the strap to the equipment's grounding point (or a conductive surface) and the other end to the rack's grounding infrastructure. Ensure a clean, direct metal-to-metal contact for effective conductivity. Torque specifications for the mounting hardware should be followed to ensure a secure connection without damaging the equipment or the rack. Consult your rack manufacturer's guidelines for optimal grounding practices.
