Grounding or No Grounding – What''s Required for Fiber?
The current language regarding optical fiber cabling grounding found in the NFPA 70 NEC 2014 is as follows: “ 770.93 Grounding or Interruption of Non–Current-Carrying Metallic
Optical fibers are used by utilities as an alternative to private point-to-point microwave systems, or communication circuits on metallic cables. OPGW as a communication medium has some advantages over buried. Installation cost per kilometre is lower than a buried cable. Effectively, the optical circuits are protected from accidental contact by the high voltage cables belo.
