Overview

The ABB K676B20GADDRK Grounding Device Full Kit delivers a permanent, direct 600A grounding solution for medium-voltage systems rated at 25kV. Designed for use with 600A series elbow connectors (T-body), this kit provides a reliable, high-current path to ground for de-energized circuits, ensuring personnel safety and equipment protection during maintenance or fault conditions. The kit includes a 20mm diameter grounding ball, a 25kV insulated cap with capacitive test point, instruction sheet, and silicone lubricant for smooth operation. The grounding device meets ANSI/IEEE Standard 386 (latest revision) and is rated for 25kA symmetrical momentary current for 10 cycles, making it suitable for medium-voltage applications in industrial power distribution, substations, and utility infrastructure. The capacitive test point allows verification of voltage absence before grounding, eliminating the risk of accidental energization. The included insulating cap and lubricant simplify installation and maintenance, reducing downtime in critical operations.
