AI summary The objective of grounding and bonding systems is to minimize electric shock risk and property damage by establishing equipotential zones. Grounding involves connecting system neutral and lightning protection systems to ground, while bonding interconnects grounded conductive surfaces. Grounding must follow the Canadian Electrical Code and drawings provided, with distribution system grounding ensuring neutral-to-earth potential does not exceed 10 volts.
