Abstract: Disclosed is an equipotential (EPZ) matting for creating an equipotential zone at a work site. A wire mesh of the EPZ matting is constructed by first cutting desired lengths of cable and laying the lengths of cable parallel and adjacent to each other. The cables are then connected to one another at regularly spaced intervals along the cables using pressed metal ferrules. The connections are staggered as between adjacent cables to create an evenly spaced, open mesh pattern when the wire mesh is tensioned perpendicularly to the longitudinal axes of the cables when initially laid along side one another. The wire mesh is opened and pulled tight for use as EPZ matting on the work site. After work is completed, the mesh is closed and bundled for transport, storage, and re-use.
