For a direct connection, connect a #6 AWG wire from the ground
source in the service panel to a ground lug on the pedestal of the AEM
column.
For a daisy-chain connection, connect a #6 AWG wire from a ground
lug on the closest Meridian 1 column or cabinet to a ground lug on the
pedestal of the AEM column (see Figure 9).
