Our 2026 NEC Grounding and Bonding Training course is a practical guide to NEC Article 250 and the related grounding and bonding rules in the latest National Electrical Code. It covers system grounding, grounding electrode systems, bonding, equipment grounding conductors, ground resistance testing and grounding for modern power systems.
This 12-hour, instructor-led course is for anyone who designs, installs, inspects, tests or maintains grounding and bonding systems in industrial, commercial, institutional and utility facilities. Participants learn how to apply the code correctly, size conductors with confidence and avoid the violations that cause shock hazards, fires and equipment damage.
Grounding and bonding are among the least understood and most frequently violated parts of the electrical code. A missing bonding jumper, an undersized equipment grounding conductor or a neutral bonded to ground in the wrong place can stop a fault from clearing and leave metal enclosures energized at dangerous voltages.
The 2026 NEC brought significant changes. Requirements for systems over 1000 volts moved from Article 250 Part X to the new Article 270. A new Article 750 covers grounding and bonding of limited-energy systems. Section 250.4 was reorganized, and the rules on grounding electrode conductor splices, intersystem bonding terminations and impedance grounding connections were revised.
At the same time, new applications are expanding what grounding has to cover: battery energy storage, EV charging, solar PV and data centers. This course gives you the code knowledge, sizing skills and testing methods to get grounding right the first time.
This course gives you practical, code-based skills you can apply right away:
By the end of this course, you will be able to:
You will leave with a working knowledge of grounding and bonding that improves safety, reduces installation errors and helps your work pass inspection.
The course combines code instruction with practical application. Each module ties specific NEC sections to real installations, using diagrams, field photos and worked examples.
Participants work through sizing calculations, system grounding scenarios and test result interpretation. Live polls and module quizzes reinforce the key points.
The course ends with a review of common violations and a final test. Participants receive a workbook that serves as a field reference after the course.
