Visual Inspections
Neutral and ground bond needs to be visually inspected.
If bond is loose, missing, or old, tighten, install, or replace bond. Poor neutral to ground bonds account for 99.9% of all surge protection failures.
Surge protection failure due to poor neutral to ground bond integrity will NOT be warranted!
Refer to page two of the installation manual.
