3.2.7 Grounding

Use of ground connections reduces the likelihood of problems in most telephony and data systems. This is especially
important in buildings where multiple items of equipment are interconnected using long cable runs, for example phone
and data networks.
All IP Office control units and external expansion modules must be connected to a functional ground. In some cases, such
as ground start trunks, in addition to being a protective measure this is a functional requirement for the equipment to
operate. In other cases it may be a locale regulatory requirement and or a necessary protective step, for example areas
of high lightning risk.
WARNING
·
During installation do not assume that ground points are correctly connected to ground. Test ground points before
relying on them to ground connected equipment.
The ground point on IP Office control units and external expansion modules are marked with a
Ground connections to these points should use a 14 AWG solid wire with either a green sleeve for a functional ground or
green and yellow sleeve for a protective ground.
· Additional protective equipment
In addition to grounding, additional protective equipment will be required in the following situations. Refer to
Building Telephone Installations".
· On any Digital Station or Phones external expansion module connected to an extension located in another building.
