• Visual common point ground indicator identifies a properly wired AC outlet that may be used for grounding purposes of an ESD control plan
• Visual and audio alarms instantly alert operators when a failure occurs

The 770048 Common Point Ground Monitor from SCS confirms the integrity of the resistance path from the common ground point to electrical ground. It is designed in accordance with ESD TR 12-01 to “monitoring equipment ground connections.” When the Common Point Ground Monitor is plugged into an electrical receptacle, its green LEDs illuminate when both the power outlet's wiring is correct and the path-to-equipment ground via the equipment grounding conductor is intact. The monitor provides 12 verified ground points when in a PASS condition.

The monitor's red LEDs illuminate and audible buzzer sounds when either the outlet’s wiring is incorrect or the path-to-equipment ground is defective. Mounting tabs make it suitable to install in workbench or equipment settings.
