I work at an electric utility that uses 1500HP4160V electric motors for circulating water. The external equipmentground is mechanical lug from the motor that splices via exothermic weld to themain grounding conductor that makes it way to cable tray and finally to theground grid that covers the entire plant.
The exothermic weld needs to be replaced. Since thisis above ground will a mechanical connection (split bolt) rated for theconductor size be acceptable?
I thank you in advance for your response.
Sincerely,
Bill
