Verizon Giving Refunds For Ungrounded FiOS Installs > Does verizon need to ground fiber?

said by Maggs:

Since fiber is light signals does Verizon actually have to ground it.

NYDPS officials say the grounding issue poses a "potential safety risk to the premises and its occupants" in the case of FiOS homes, according to one report sent to Verizon two years ago. "We tentatively conclude that FiOS may form an electrically conductive path both to the outside world as well as other electrically powered devices inside the building," that report stated.

If there was union contractors on this they would have done better.
