Manual 019703 REV B - March 2019

Ground/Locate Box

The ground/locate box for the FDH allows the ability to locate distribution cables without the risk of damage to live circuits 

by opening the cabinet. Through the use of the main cabinet ground bar, and Clearfield’s ground stud kit (P/N 016953), the 

customer can have a locate point on the outside of the cabinet.

Clearfield suggests:

To install a ground stud, drill a 1/4” hole in the base of the cabinet and insert the stud. Tighten and seal with silicon sealant. 

Ground leads can then be attached from the ground stud to the Ground/Locate Box.
