Re: Ground strap in bilge
This is the one and only time that I will say that the Amel OEM part is not the best part.
Amel uses a thin copper foil for the bonding strap inside the gray water bilge. In terms of electrical

Re: Ground strap in bilge
This bilge bonding strap conducts micro volts. Stainless steel is much, much less conductive than copper. If I remember correctly, stainless steel has about 2-5% the conductivity of copper.

Re: Ground strap in bilge
Thanks Robin,

I am looking at doing the mast step as well. Eight

Re: Ground strap in bilge
Thought of that, if that is all I can get it will be a last resort. Copper pipe is a blend of metal. I believe hat Bill R. is not a fan either. Hoping to find a good quality copper.
Thanks Keith take

Re: Ground strap in bilge
Cannot argue with the logic. We are fortunate, our strap seems to be pretty intact. But fashioning a copper connector by hammering a pipe has also been suggested, which seems easy enough.

Re: Ground strap in bilge
Why a copper strap at all then. Why not use heavy duty copper wire?
