Overview

The ABB GUV784 U-Bolt Copper Ground Clamp is a precision-engineered grounding solution designed for industrial and electrical applications requiring secure, corrosion-resistant connections. This clamp connects copper or copper-clad steel grounding conductors ranging from 8 to 4 AWG to ground rods with diameters between 7/8" and 1", or IPS pipes sized from 1/2" to 3/4". Constructed with a copper alloy body and a stainless steel U-bolt, the GUV784 ensures optimal conductivity and long-term reliability in demanding environments. The specially designed spacer maintains proper alignment between the cable and electrode, maximizing contact area for superior electrical performance. Measuring 2-3/4" in length, 2-5/8" in width, and 1-9/16" in depth, this compact yet robust clamp fits securely in tight installation spaces. The clamp’s dimensions allow for installation in confined areas while providing a secure fit for grounding conductors and rods. Ideal for substation grounding, electrical panels, and industrial machinery, the GUV784 is UL 467 listed for direct burial, meeting stringent safety standards for grounding applications. Its durable construction and precise engineering make it a reliable choice for grounding systems where performance and durability are critical. The combination of copper alloy and stainless steel components ensures resistance to corrosion and mechanical stress, extending the clamp’s service life in harsh conditions.
