Bond and ground a flammable-liquid transfer
Practice the NFPA 77 bonding-and-grounding order from flammable-liquids training. The transfer is not started until bonding and grounding clamps show continuity.
- Confirm both containers must be bonded for this flammable liquid.
- Attach the ground clamp to the known ground point first.
- Bond the receiving container to the source container.
- Verify metal-to-metal contact or continuity as the SOP requires.
- Transfer at the taught flow rate.
- Keep the fill path below the liquid surface if the SOP requires it.
- Close the containers when the transfer is done.
- Remove the bond and ground last.
