  • Conductivity strap arrangement for a valve stem
    Patent number: 6619972
    Abstract: A conductivity strap arrangement is provided, particularly for use on non-conductive water supply valves. The conductivity strap arrangement includes a conductivity strap having a braided strap section that is deformable to form an opening therein which fits onto a valve stem. The opposite ends of the conductivity strap are connected to adjacent pipe sections either directly to the pipe sections or to a connector fitting to define an electrical current path from the valve operating nut through the conductivity strap to adjacent pipe sections.
