Bonding Path

Traditional Grounding Path
Figure 9 Grounding Path Detail
The grounding path through the main bonding components is shown above. The rail
shown is the Rapid Rail, however this bonding path is consistent for the Venture Rail,
Ground Hog Rail and Hat Rail. The module bonding is achieved through the Mid-
Clamp. If anodized rail is to be used, then the A-Type of Kinetic Mid-Clamps and
Ground Lugs must be used in order to penetrate the anodized coating of the rail and
provide adequate bonding. If mill finished rail is to be used, then the M-Type of
components or A-Type may be used. Similarly, if bonding is to be achieved through the
rail joiner, the correct rail joiner must also be used. For anodized rail, the KJS2W must
be used. For mill finish rail, either the KJS2W or KJS2 may be used.
