A meter box ground clamp for clamping a ground wire to a metallic meter box includes a clamp body, a wedge body, a bolt member and a ground engagement bolt. The clamp body has a base segment and first and second leg segments, each of the leg segments having a laterally extending extension segment for engaging the exterior surface of the meter box drip cap. The wedge body includes an upper segment disposed proximate to the clamp body legs, a lower segment disposed proximate to the clamp body base segment, and a middle segment extending from the lower segment, through a slot of the clamp body base segment, to the upper segment. The bolt member head is disposed above an upper portion of the clamp body base segment, with the shaft extending downwardly through an opening of the base segment upper portion. The bolt member shaft threadably engages an opening of the wedge body middle segment for driving the wedge body upper portion between the meter box drip cap and the meter box panel to electrically connect the ground clamp to the meter box. The threaded shaft of the ground engagement bolt is received within a threaded opening of the wedge body lower segment to clamp a ground wire positioned within a bore of the wedge body lower segment.
