GROUNDING (EARTHING) FOR DISPATCH CENTERS AND NETWORK OPERATOR POSITIONS CHAPTER 5: INTERNAL GROUNDING (EARTHING) Surge protection devices should be present on all AC power, telephone and data communication cables at every network operator position or cluster to help minimize voltages between communication conductors and conductive surfaces (see Chapter 7, “Surge Protective Devices”). When SPDs are present, they shall be bonded to the SSGB using conductors as follows: • 6 mm 2 csa (#10 AWG) insulated copper conductor for lengths not exceeding 914 mm (3 ft.). • 16 mm2 csa (#6 AWG) insulated copper conductor for lengths not exceeding 3.9 m (13 ft.). The grounding conductors shall be run using the shortest, most direct route as practicable. See Figure 5-39 for a high level overview of the required bonding.

5.8.3.2 INTERPOSITION BONDING FOR MULTI-CLUSTER NETWORK OPERATOR POSITIONS<br />
When a dispatch room is configured with multiple network operator position clusters, consideration<br />
should be given to establishing a bonding grid that interconnects all network operator position SSGBs<br />
<strong>and</strong> equalizes potentials among the clusters. This bonding grid will be of value if an operator of one<br />
cluster, while still connected to his or her own position, approaches a position in an adjacent<br />
neighboring cluster. When a bonding grid is installed it shall meet the requirements of this paragraph.<br />
