Abstract
A grounding clip including: a head having an aperture disposed in the head; a first leg connected to a first edge of the head; a second leg connected to a second edge of the head, where the first leg and the second leg are substantially parallel; a first resilient tab connected to the first leg at an end distal from the end connected to the head; and a second resilient tab connected to the second leg at an end distal from the end connected to the head.
Claims18
A system comprising:
- a grounding clip comprising:
- a head comprising an aperture disposed in the head;
- a first leg connected to a first edge of the head;
- a second leg connected to a second edge of the head, wherein the first leg and the second leg are substantially parallel;
- a first resilient tab connected to the first leg at an end distal from the end connected to the head;
- and
- a second resilient tab connected to the second leg at an end distal from the end connected to the head;
- wherein a width of the head is greater than a width of the first leg, and wherein the width of the head is substantially equal to an outside width of a stringer of a first cable runway section.
