Ive been hired to project manage a cabling project which will incorporate scTP Cat5e (w\shielded hardware) horizontal cabling in a high bay shop\warehouse environment. I currently do not have a current NEC or EIA\TIA codes\standards available to me for reference.

My hangup is properly grounding this cabling system , and making sure its done right. Would appreciate any feedback or links to information on this . THX



 
My source for my statements is the NFPA specifications and testing data, along with many other sources such as:



Doesn't matter how it became a plenum issue, but since it did I prefer to correct mis-conceptions. Especially one that is so wide-spread as this one.

It is good that you question what you read here, but you should also question what you here in the field. There are numerous mis-conceptions in this industry which are easily de-bunked with a little research.
