				used for loading blasting agents must be adequately grounded to dissipate
				static electric charges that may cause premature initiation of the detonator.
				The machine or hopper, discharge hose, fittings, discharge tube, and loading
				tube must form a continuous electrically conductive path to a ground. The
				system ground conductor and loading tube shall have a resistance high enough to
				prevent hazards from stray currents, yet low enough to adequately maintain
