Bonding Multiple Subpanels
Bonding multiple subpanels creates a common low impedance exit path for the
high frequency energy inside the cabinet. Subpanels that are not bonded together
can not share a common low impedance path. This difference in impedance can
affect networks and other devices that span multiple panels.
