StructuredGround^™ Flat Braided Bonding Straps are used to electrically bond enclosure doors, subpanels, motors, and machines in most applications to improve safety and protect against electrostatic discharge (ESD). The flat ferrule design of this bonding component helps to reduce the effects of EMI because it passes high-frequency noise more effectively than round stranded-type cables. In applications where motion or vibration is a concern, these straps resist breaking and cracking of individual strands that can degrade the effectiveness of the bond.
