Abstract
A ground rod electrical connection bracket (10) includes a bent sheet metal receiving member (12), the end (13) of which are bent into opposed semi-cylindrical shapes and provided with screw threads (18). The ends (13) are provided with a rim (19) and by pinching the ends, a ring (14) may be positioned behind the rim around the semi-cylindrical ends. A corrosion resistant bolt (17) engages the screw threads to clamp a connecting wire (16) against the ground rod (15). The connecting wire is seated between the ground rod and an acute corner (22) of the receiving member.
