But what is that ground connector grounded to?

We will be grounding it. Else you can’t tone it if you put the tone on at the HH. Good idea on clamping the strength members but I am not going to put them in the ground connector.

I don't think there's any distinction made as to whether it's a toning wire, armor, or what have you. I'd clamp the FRP strength members if there's a way provided to do it though.

This helps keep the cable from getting pistoned in or pulling out. The copper line on the drop cable is a tracer and should not be connected to anything at either end. At least that is how I was taught. On Wed, Sep 9, 2020 at 8:13 PM Chuck McCown <ch...@wbmfg.com <mailto:ch...@wbmfg.com> > wrote: I think I will switch to a mechanical.
