Grounding 4.18.1 A copper grounding bus sized for the rated short circuit current and running the entire length of the switchgear assembly shall be provided. Two (2) solderless type ground connectors shall be provided on the ground bus, one on each end section of the bus. The ground connectors shall be suitable for a bare copper ground conductor 120mm thru 240mm. All hinged doors and panels shall be properly bonded by unspliced flexible wire or 10mm2 Cu braids. All devices or equipment shall be grounded as required. Each grounding connection to the ground bus shall be arranged so that each may be disconnected without disturbing the continuity of the ground bus or any other ground connection. Drawout carriage of all removable elements shall have a direct ground connection with the switchgear ground bus through suitable flexible or pressure contact type connections designed to carry the rated fault current for the rated duration.

Accessories The following accessories shall be supplied as applicable : 4.19.1 One handling device or its equivalent for removing each size of circuit breaker from the switchgear assembly, which shall be capable of putting the circuit breaker on the floor. A set of each relay manufacturers test plugs accessories for meter and relay testing. Portable device for racking circuit breaker from one position to the other:. two such devices when one line-up of switchgear is supplied, one device per line-up if more than one line-up is supplied. A set of test jumper cables (one for each line-up of switchgear) or equivalent with appropriate end fittings to permit connections of all secondary control contacts for test of the circuit breaker in the withdrawn position. The test jumper cables shall be long enough to permit testing when the breaker is completely removed from the panel. A lever or equivalent device for manually charging the spring-operated stored energy closing mechanism of the circuit breaker. Any special tools required for circuit breaker maintenance and relay adjustments.
