Install the Coupled Bonding Conductor

The Coupled Bonding Conductor (CBC) provides mutual inductance coupling between the CBC and the
telephone cables that are exposed to lightning. The conductor can be a 10 AWG (4 mm
the exposed cables, a metal cable shield around the exposed cables, or six spare pairs from the exposed
cable. In a high-rise building, connect the CBC to an approved building ground on each floor.
Before you begin, be sure the telephone lines are cross-connected to the appropriate media module(s).
Install the CBC
Begin
Connect one end of the conductor to a telephone cable building entrance protector ground that is
1.
connected to an approved ground.
2. Route the rest of the conductor next to the exposed telephone cables being protected until they
reach the cross-connect nearest to the telephone system.
3. Terminate the other end to the single-point ground block provided for the telephone system.
End
Note: Position the non-exposed telephone cables at least 12 inches (30.5 cm) away
from exposed telephone cables whenever possible.
