A DC rod clip is a type of hardware used in grounding systems for electrical equipment. It is designed to securely attach a grounding conductor or cable to a steel structure, such as a transmission tower or building frame, by clamping onto a steel rod. DC rod clips are typically made of durable and corrosion-resistant materials like stainless steel or copper alloy and are used in a variety of applications, including telecommunications, power distribution, and lightning protection systems. They are a crucial component in ensuring proper grounding and safe operation of electrical equipment.
