conductors in that area shall connect to this primary system ground.
3.16.1.2 The system ground shall be provided in the audio equipment rack for the area, and shall consist of a copper
bar of sufficient size to accommodate all secondary ground conductors. A copper conductor having a
maximum of 0.1 Ohms total resistance shall connect the primary system ground bar to the nearest approved
electrical ground. The Contractor shall be responsible for determining if the metallic conduit is properly
electrically bonded to the building ground system.
3.16.1.3 Secondary system grounding conductors shall be provided from all racks, audio consoles, and grounding
point for the area. Each of these grounding conductors shall have a maximum of 0.1 Ohms total resistance.
Under no conditions shall the AC neutral conductor, either in the power panel or in a receptacle
outlet, be used for a system ground. Under no conditions shall the technical ground be connected
to non-technical ground conductors.
3.16.2 AUDIO CABLE SHIELDS
3.16.2.1 All audio cable shields shall be grounded at one point only. There are no exceptions. For inter and intra-rack
wiring, this requires that the shield be connected at one end only. For ungrounded portable equipment, such
as microphones, the shield shall be connected at both ends but grounded at only one end.
3.16.2.2 The Contractor shall submit for approval a detail showing standard wiring procedures indicating the
following:
 Audio connection methodology for balanced to balanced line level interfaces

 Audio connection methodology for balanced to unbalanced line level interfaces
 Audio connection methodology for unbalanced to balanced line level interfaces.
