Grounding pad for panel Baks PUP (1.4301) model 897303 — stainless steel grounding plate

Grounding pad Baks PUP (1.4301) model 897303 — stainless steel grounding plate is a stainless-steel contact plate intended for mounting on control panels and electrical cabinets to establish an equipotential connection and reliable earthing. Manufactured from material grade 1.4301, the plate provides a corrosion-resistant, mechanically stable surface for attaching cable clamps, busbars or other grounding conductors in industrial and commercial installations where durable panel grounding is required.

Advantages

The stainless-steel construction ensures long-term corrosion resistance and mechanical strength suitable for indoor electrical environments. The flat contact surface and precise mounting geometry make it compatible with common cable clamps and busbar attachments, allowing straightforward installation and a stable electrical connection. The compact, low-profile design minimises interference with panel layout while providing a dependable grounding point.

Suitable for

• Grounding and equipotential bonding in electrical switchboards and distribution panels
• Attachment point for cable clamps and busbars in control cabinets
• Industrial machinery panels requiring a stable earth connection
• Electrical installations in commercial buildings and technical rooms

Key specifications

• Material: stainless steel grade 1.4301 (AISI 304)
• Function: panel mounting grounding/contact plate for earthing and equipotential bonding
• Compatibility: designed for use with cable clamps, busbar connectors and grounding conductors
• Environment: intended for indoor electrical cabinets and control panels
• Design: low-profile plate providing a flat contact surface for secure mechanical and electrical connection

How to use

Mount the grounding pad on a prepared panel surface using appropriate hardware and following the panel manufacturer's mounting provisions. Ensure the mounting surface is clean and free of paint or corrosion to achieve a low-resistance electrical contact. Attach grounding conductors, cable clamps or busbar connectors to the plate and tighten fasteners to the torque values recommended for the clamp or connector used. Verify continuity between the plate and the earth reference using suitable testing equipment after installation.

Usage recommendations

For reliable long-term performance, avoid mounting on painted or heavily oxidised surfaces without first establishing a clean metal-to-metal contact. Use appropriately sized conductors and connectors for the expected fault current, and follow local electrical codes and standards for earthing and equipotential bonding. Periodic inspection of the contact area and fasteners is recommended to maintain a secure, low-resistance connection.
