When there is more than one connection point to earth the screen becomes a conductor and no
longer performs correctly. Care should be taken to ensure only one bonded earth point is ever
connected on a primary network Refer Section 5-3.5.4 for details on use of a Repeater in a primary
network.
5-3.5.2 Continuous Screen
The screen on a primary network needs to be continuous. That means it remains unbroken along its
entire length. As there is one ‘S’ terminal on a typical primary network device both the Global and
Net screens are to be connected to this tie terminal.
Refer to Figure 5-10 and Figure 5-11 for examples of Genesis II Direct Digital Controller / MPCII Mid
Points Controller Comms Terminal connections.
