Engineering Application Notes: Grounding Kit, MK-2551 A/U (Surface Wire Ground System)

Abstract

This report discusses the description, specifications, theory of operation, employment principles, and test results of the MK-2551 Grounding Kit, also known as the Surface Wire Ground System (SWGS). Design information is included for application of this system to specific designs. The report is intended to fill a gap in the knowledge available to the design and development community. Application and employment principles are developed from test results augmented by validated theoretical performance models. Explanations of installation, removal, and maintenance operations are also presented. MK-2551, Grounding Kit, Surface Wire Ground System, Electrical Grounding, NSN 5820-01- 263-1760
