All bare conductor wires should be coated with antioxidant before making crimp
connections.
Unplated surfaces intended for bonding and grounding must be cleaned, polished,
and coated with an anti-oxidant before assembly.
When attaching ground wires with screws, a star washer must be used for anti-
rotation.
The grounding wire must be connected to the IPB by the grounding screw using a
user-supplied lug.
When attaching the grounding wire, ensure the screw is torque to 8 to 10 in-lb (0.9 to
1.1 N-m).
