What is the purpose of a single point ground panel?
Pick an answer to check it.
Answer: D. Ensure all lightning protectors activate at the same time
A single point ground panel ties all protectors to one point so they all activate at the same time during a lightning surge. This prevents voltage differences between pieces of equipment.
Tip: One ground point, protectors act together.
