ABSTRACT:
A grounding kit for a transmission line cable having a portion of its outer jacket removed to reveal an exposed section of its conductor is set forth. The grounding kit includes a clip, a bail and a housing. The clip has a fulcrum portion and means for connecting the clip to a ground wire. The clip encompasses a part of the exposed section of the conductor. The bail includes a mounting element pivotably mounted on the fulcrum portion of the clip to permit rotation of the bail between an open position and a closed position. The handle contacts the clip and forces the clip into clamping engagement with the exposed section of the conductor in response to the bail being rotated to the closed position. The hollow housing has an opening at both ends and an exit port. The housing encompasses and seals the clip, the bail and the exposed conductor. The transmission line cable on either side of the exposed section exits the hollow housing through its end openings while the grounding wire exits the hollow housing through the exit port.
