Not if you apply Ohm’s Law. If you bond all the metallic objects to the equipment grounding (bonding) conductor (EGC), you put them at the same potential. That means there are zero volts between them.

As we said last month, electrical theory underlies everything we do in the electrical construction business. It is therefore necessary to review this theory regularly. We continue now with Ohm's Law.

In the theatre, as in most of the rest of modern life, electric power is used to energize equipment. It is the responsibility of every stagehand to understand basic electrical theory in order to ...
