Square D PK7GTACP Ground Bar Kit 100A Load Center

Product Description

The Square D PK7GTACP is a ground bar kit designed for use with 100-amp main lugs load centers. It provides a dedicated grounding point that bonds equipment grounding conductors to the enclosure and grounding electrode system. This kit is required when the load center is installed as a service entrance, where neutral and ground must be bonded at the first point of disconnect. Electricians working on residential or light commercial service entrance panels will typically specify this kit to meet code requirements for proper grounding infrastructure.

This ground bar kit is used in 100-amp main lugs load center installations serving as service entrance equipment. In this configuration, a separate ground bar is necessary to terminate equipment grounding conductors independently, satisfying NEC requirements for grounding at the service point. It is suited for residential new construction, panel replacements, and service upgrades where a compliant grounding termination point is needed inside the enclosure.

Key Features

• Required accessory when load center is used as service entrance equipment
• Provides dedicated termination points for equipment grounding conductors
• Designed specifically for 100A main lugs load centers
• Sold as a single unit for straightforward ordering and installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style accessory ground bar kit for 100-amp main lugs load centers used in service entrance applications. Confirm compatibility with the specific load center model before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize the service entrance and coordinate with the utility before working on service entrance equipment. Secure the ground bar to the enclosure per the load center manufacturer instructions, ensuring all equipment grounding conductors are properly terminated. Do not share grounding and neutral terminations on the ground bar in sub-panel configurations.
