Re: Proper Grounding?

The proper way is designed grounding point on ONT to approved grounding point in house electrical system. This could be a ground terminal the the breaker box, attaching it to the grounding rod with approved fastener, etc. The NEC is fairly clear on what's approved and what's not.

So I guess it follows NEC Code? I should probably read up. Right now the cable at my parents house it grounded to the cold water pipe, which is about 20ft from entrance, where the electrical system is grounded to. When I redid our cable in the house (went from all sorts of mis-matched cables to RG6-Quad shield), I just kept it grounded to the same location that Comcast originally had it, except I sanded the pipe a bit more to get a better contact.

Also, if you have multiple splitters (like in the last picture in the article), each of them needs their own, separate, bond?
