AEGIS®: Ground StrapCompany: AEGIS®

Product: AEGIS High-Frequency Ground Straps

Description: AEGIS High-Frequency Ground Straps ensure a low-impedance path to ground for the high-frequency currents generated by variable frequency drive (VFD) motors and systems. Non-zero impedances within a ground system can give rise to transient voltages and ground-system currents that can travel along motor shafts and damage motor bearings. The straps are specially engineered for the lowest possible impedance to the high-frequency currents generated by VFDs. These 12-inch-long flat-braided, tinned, copper straps are designed with a circular hole on one end for easy installation around the foot-mounting screw of National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA)- or International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC)-frame motors and a ring terminal on the opposite end.
