Changing my first service under 2008 code in a residence. Existing telephone and CATV are bonded to metal water pipes with clamps in the basement. The drops are within a few feet of the SE drop/Meter location.
Code requires me to remove the CATV and telephone bonds that run inside and redirect them to a set of terminals on the outside of the meter socket? Do I have that right? Or can the existing bonds be utilized? Looks like #14 any color and insulated is required. Can I drill and tap a typical small grounding bar into the outside of the meter can?
Thanks for responses, Mike
