Customer Reviews for GE PowerMark Gold 42-Hole Grounding Bar Kit

Does not fit as intended

WORKS PERFECT

added as a secondary to have one neutral and one ground for box rather than both on one rack

Gave it 4 out of 5 stars because it cost less than other ground bars however it looks like you might be getting what you pay for. If you want to use it in a non-GE panel, be prepared to drill and tap the can (cabinet, housing) to match the bar which is not a bad practice since it assures a solid electrical connection from the ground bar to the can or load center cabinet. The lug screws will accept a Roberts (square) driver but the heads strip out pretty easily which defeats the higher torque advantage of using a Roberts driver. The Sq-D lug screws in the panel I used it in did not have this issue. A Philips driver worked fine to secure tighten the lug screws even after stripping out the Roberts. Knowing the limitations, I would still buy it again because of the cost savings. Pros - long bar - less expensive than other brands - larger lugs (all uniform) - nice for branch circuits up to #8 in any position - comes with mounting screws - stands a little taller than some other ground bars I have used Cons - lug screws strip out easy when using Roberts (square) driver - no larger lugs for wires greater than #8

It was an accessory purchased to fit the Goldmark service panel that I purchased, so it fit perfectly - - no drilling needed. Installation was with 2 povided screws.

item delivered does not look like ground bar pictured above. was not able to attach with both screws,since additional mounting strip was not included.

I'm very satisfied with this bar.

Great product.

It was nice that the service was already tapped in a couple of places to receive the separate ground lug bar.

Just what I needed.

A very good item when you need one. Well constructed and should work great.
