Abstract
An electrical conduit grounding assembly includes a grounding cable parallel to and laterally offset from the conduit and a pair of longitudinally extending dihedral angle clamp members provided with longitudinally serrated confronting concave faces which embrace the conduit and have interdigitating hinge knuckles along their proximal longitudinal edges engaging the grounding cable. A screw engages a tapped bore and an opening in distal wings on the clamp members to permit their tightening. Longitudinal slots may be formed in the knuckles to facilitate their application to the grounding cable.
