Discuss What to do with this earth strip thing?? in the Industrial Electricians' Talk area at ElectriciansForums.net

I must have used miles of perforated copper tape years ago. It was available in 3 grades I think the largest being 1” X 1/8”. It could be plumbed to the sheath of paper lead cables. I don’t know why it went out of favour, it was great for trunking / tray installs. I used to run it unbroken the full length of the install.
 
seen some on an old job a couple of years back. was head scratching when i couldn't get a sensible Ze from the earth bar in the CU. turned out there was no continuity between the earth bar and the steel enclosure.
