My question is about Chemical Grounds.
I could not find any information on chemical grounds in the NEC. We have currently finished a research facility at UTD Dallas that has a chemical ground system. There will be an electron microscope connected to this system. The University is concerned that there will be noise on this ground because it is bonded to the main ground bus for the building. the university is wanting to remove the bonding jumper from the main ground bus. I'm telling them this would be a code violation. Can you have a compleatly seperate grounding system for this microscope? Is there any information out there that we could use to help with this problem? Your hthoughts on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
