Equipotential bonding is the process whereby all exposed conductive
parts are connected together so that they are all at the same (usually
earth) potential. Cross connecting three independent earthing systems


The problem is that in the event of a lightning strike, nothing is at
earth
potential!

and a corrolary of this: there is no such thing as an 'rf ground'.
