Where screens/shields are used, they shall be covered by an outer
insulating sheath. They shall be grounded at the associated apparatus
intrinsic safety ground point and insulated at the hazardous area end.
Where screened multipair/multitriad cables interconnect within field
junction boxes with individual screened pair/triad cables, insulated
terminals shall be provided for the ongoing continuity of the
screens/shields.

E21
In cabinets housing the associated apparatus, the intrinsic safety ground
bus shall be connected to a node in the overall plant ground grid by
dedicated, redundant, insulated copper cables not smaller than #4 AWG.
To identify the intrinsically safe grounding conductors as being different
from other ground connections, the grounding conductor insulation color
shall be green with blue tracer (or banded with blue tape)
