It's not very remarkable. What you see is what you get; which is precisely the reason I got it!
I've looked and there's not a little screw any where, so logic would suggest it get grounded to the keg. That then means I need to create an earthing point on the keg itself!

Glad I asked!
Just had a closer look, my heaters don't sit in a guard like that. I have drilled a hole into the back of my boiler and my elements are inserted from the inside thru to the outside, hence Weldless...
So mine don't have that little screw! :oops:
So, ... what do I do?
Drill a hole in the top of the keg, where the handels are then put a bolt in it.
Or if you have legs on the boiler drill a hole in one of the legs and tap a thread in. (This is what I have done)
Or if you have a tig weld a stud next to the element.
