a. Install the cable gland assembly, metal clamp and the brass sleeve onto
the home run cable while sliding back the outer braid shield (Figure
2-51). The inner drain wire should go into the enclosure through the cable
gland, while the outer drain wire remains on the outside.
b. Fold and spread out the inner braid shield and foil over the metal ring
before pressing the grommet into the body of the cable gland, as shown in
Figure 2-51. Tighten the cable gland's nut with the brass sleeve onto the
body of the gland.

c. Pull the outer braid forward to cover the brass sleeve and wrap one end of
a flat braided ground cable over it before securing everything down using
the metal clamp (Figure 2-52). Route the home run cable's outer drain
wire along with the flat braided cable through a ground lug attached to the
rear of the harsh enclosure. The other end of the flat braided cable is
terminated at the ground rod.
