You get reminders every day. Reminders on your phone, reminders in your email, reminders in your texts.

Some reminders get kind of annoying, but some reminders are there to keep you safe.

According to the US Department of Labor, “Accident statistics compiled by MSHA's Health Safety Analysis Center indicate that approximately 14% of all electrical fatalities occur from improper or inadequate grounding.”

Grounding and bonding might sound like simple concepts, especially to a journeyman or a master electrician, and it really is SIMPLE, but that doesn't always mean it's easy. There may even be times when you wonder if something needs to be grounded at all.
