C-CLAMP GROUND ADAPTERS ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A ground adapter is used in conjunction with a C-clamp for providing a connection between a ground cable from, for example an electric arc welding machine, to a ground object such as a workpiece. The ground adapter and ground object are firmly retained in contact with one another by a conventional C-clamp. The ground adapter is comprised of a ground base which is designed to receive one or more electrical cables. A plurality of adjustable cowling members may be disposed about one pad or foot of the C-clamp and are releasably secured to the ground base. The location of cowling members on the ground base is adjustable which enables use of the ground adapter with C-clamps having pads of varying sizes. Upon tightening the spindle or threaded portion of the C-clamp against the ground adapter, the cowling members of which are in firm contact with one pad of the clamp and against the ground base, a reliable physical and electrical contact is maintained between the ground adapter and the ground object thereby enabling com- pletion of an electrical circuit as, for example, is required during electric arc welding operations.
