    Hi.

    Earthing - The connecting of the EXPOSED conductive parts of an installation to the Main Earthing Terminal (M.E.T) of the installation.

    Equipotential Bonding - The connecting of EXTRANEOUS conductive parts of an installation to the Main Earthing Terminal (M.E.T) of the installation.
