Amazon.com Product Description
The Jet D.C. Grounding Kit provides everything you need to ground a dust collection system, including directions for installation. All dust collection systems build up static electricity, and if not grounded, that electricity becomes a hazard that could start a fire. This kit grounds your system against electrical charge buildup. A large system may need more than one kit, so it's smart to keep plenty of these on hand. This safety accessory is essential to any complete dust collection assortment.

Customer Reviews

Not terribly great
What's the point. I can get spare wire and wire nuts to ground my system far cheaper than this. i find the braided copper hard to deal with and am far happier using spare romex I have lying around the shop. Do yourself a favor and make one of these yourself.

Unnecessary expense and waste of time
Read what is said at the Fine Woodworking website (from Taunton Press - a very knowledgable and reliable woodworking information publisher) about the necessity of grounding a 4" or less PVC duct collection system. The conclusion - unnecessary. Save your money and time and instead spend it woodworking.

You can also do a Google search and find other articles that debunk this mindlessly repeated myth of wood dust explosions occurring in woodworkers' garages. (I am only referring to home-based, 4" or smaller pvc piping systems)
