56, 916 ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE The grounding stud assembly for grounding electrical equipment comprises a grounding stud having one end for connection to a grounding clamp and an opposite end for connection to a bus system at either a bus splice joint or cable termination. A cover is positioned over the grounding clamp receiving end and over an insulated elongated portion of the grounding stud for insulating the grounding stud to prevent inadvertent discharge into the environment. The cover comprises an annular ring for engagement with an annular retaining collar positioned on the elongated portion for securing together the cover and grounding stud. The cover includes an eyelet for facili- tating removal of the cover from a save working distance. Due to an overlap of the insulating material of the elongated portion of the grounding stud and of the cover, the grounding stud assembly provides an extension of the creep or strike distance between adjacent grounding studs, thereby enabling the grounding stud assembly to comply with the applicable standards.
