Nvent GR1162Q Ground Rod Kit 4/0 to 5/8 Inch

Product Description

The NVENT GR1162Q is a ground rod kit designed to connect 4/0 conductors to 5/8-inch ground rods in electrical grounding applications. This kit provides the hardware needed to make a secure, code-compliant mechanical connection between a large-gauge grounding conductor and a driven ground rod. It is used by licensed electricians performing grounding and bonding work on residential and commercial electrical systems. The 0.58-pound kit is compact and straightforward to install, making it a practical choice for service entrances, panel installations, and grounding electrode system work.

This ground rod kit is suited for applications where a 4/0 AWG grounding electrode conductor must terminate at a 5/8-inch ground rod. Typical installations include service entrance grounding, supplemental grounding electrode systems, and new construction electrical rough-in. Electricians working to NEC grounding and bonding requirements will find this kit appropriate for those connections.

Key Features

• Accommodates 4/0 conductor to 5/8-inch ground rod connections
• Compact kit format includes the hardware needed for a complete mechanical connection
• Lightweight at 0.58 pounds for easy transport and handling on the job
• Designed for compliance with NEC grounding and bonding requirements

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style grounding accessory for use with 5/8-inch diameter ground rods and 4/0 AWG grounding electrode conductors in standard electrical grounding electrode system installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC Article 250 requirements for grounding and bonding. De-energize the system and verify the absence of voltage before making any connections at the service entrance or panel. Ensure the ground rod is fully driven to the required depth before attaching the clamp or connector hardware. Do not substitute conductor sizes outside the listed range for this kit.
