Hi all.

I picked up a couple water ground clamps at a Home Depot. They look more silver than bronze. Did a Google on the manufacturer and they seem to be made of zinc and listed for CU. I'm looking around in the code book and can not locate anything about what the clamp should be made of. It just mentions clamps to be listed. Should I be OK to install them?

The clamp needs to be listed for both the conductor type used and for the pipe that it's connected to. Doesn't really matter what it's made of as long as it's used according to it's listing.
