[TowerTalk] Grounding connection to tower legs

[Jeff Blaine]

What’s the best way to connect the copper wire/strap to the 55G tower leg?

I’m planning to clean the galvanized leg, wrap the leg with a layer of 0.005” SS shim stock and then use a couple of SS hose clamps to hold the wire against the tower leg.  

Is that the right way to do the attachment?

Should I use any copper paste as well?
