We are bidding a veterinary clinic and the notes call out 517 for redundant grounding (in exam rooms, surgery etc.). Is there any place in code that deals with vets vs. human health care? I would not think we are required to do any of the requirements of 517 unless specifically called out. Has anyone seen these being spec'd as a human health care facility. Any additional thoughts?

I would submit an RFI asking for clarification of the requirement. 517 only applies to human health facilities.
