NOTE: Grounding
If practice calls for an external ground, a 3M Ground Strap Assembly Kit (GS–1, GS–2 and GS–3) is available
from your local distributor for use on ribbon shield cable. Follow procedure for these kits for grounding. For
UniShield
®
and wire shield cable, a ground strap assembly kit is not necessary. Simply fold the wires back over
jacket to connect to the system ground.
