Its been a long time since Ive seen that done,when the brackets were steel it was very common....now Ill assume its up to the crew involved.....with a shortage of men and more work placed on them,some guys aint going to take time to ground the racks.

We ground the tanks and the brackets, but we float the high side, this is where you will get into the difference on how different one companys specs are verses another.:D

The brackets are grounded to a down ground (driven ground). The tanks are grounded to system neutral here

Your down ground is connected to your system neutral? If not it should be.

Every ground in PE Florida is tied to neutral
