Hi Frank, Can you do a longer ground that allows moving the cover to the side? In my experience it is risky to design a system where the ground is routinely disconnected. If you need to design it that way, I recommend using a braided gasket that is partially compressed when the panel is installed. You'll need the panel and gasket plated so that there is no corrosion that would increase the contact resistance since this arrangement can't be considered gas-tight.

Hi All, In the past we have typically done a stud and nut grounding for removable lift-off access panels, but this is an inconvenience to disconnect the ground cable. What are other methods for grounding large panel doors (3ft x 7ft) if any? -- Thank you and best regards. - Frank - ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message is from the IEEE Product Safety Engineering Society emc-pstc discussion list.
