Is there a way to earth-ground a 2t22 body?

I have not found a terminal screw to ground the metal body.
All it has are three wires for the three-phase connection and two wires, P1 and P2 for the three internal thermal switches.
Should the metal body not be earth-grounded?
Thank you,

Well I don't know about a 2T22 or any other siren other than my personal STH10. My STH10 has a cable connection point to the triangular shaped metal pole top (thing) where it must have been grounded in case lightning struck it. Other than that it has no ground.

All Federal sirens I have seen have the ground wire bonded to the base of the siren. There's no specific place to bond to the siren, so just install a copper lug somewhere on the stand and go from there. Make your own if you have to.
