Caterpillar Gas EnginesThe following guidelines are recommended for electrically grounding a gas engine: * The battery negative terminal (-) should NOT be connected to the cylinder block.* All metal cases enclosing electrical/electronic controls should be connected to the cylinder block with an electrical ground strap.* The cylinder block should be connected to the customer provided connection to the electrical ground plan/grid.* The battery negative terminal (-) should be connected to the customer provided connection to the electrical ground plan/grid.* Any flexible connection in the engine cooling circuit pipes should be "jumped" with an electrical ground strap so there is a "continuous" electrical connection from the radiator to the cylinder block.
