Site backfill is scheduled before the service grounding electrode work has been inspected. What should the superintendent coordinate?

Correct Answer

C) Verify the grounding electrode/bonding work is installed and inspected before it is concealed

Grounding electrode and bonding work can be concealed by site work, slabs, or finishes, so the superintendent must coordinate installation and inspection before cover-up. Memory notes, post-energization installation, or equipment delivery do not replace inspection of the grounding path.

Answer Options
A
Backfill first and document the location from memory
B
The superintendent should install grounding components only after permanent power is energized
C
Verify the grounding electrode/bonding work is installed and inspected before it is concealed
D
The superintendent should omit the grounding review if the transformer has arrived

Why This Is the Correct Answer

Grounding electrode and bonding work can be concealed by site work, slabs, or finishes, so the superintendent must coordinate installation and inspection before cover-up. Memory notes, post-energization installation, or equipment delivery do not replace inspection of the grounding path.
