Could we change the name of this thread please?  I'm not sure I'm done
getting responses on my EN61000-3-3 question and suddenly it's turned into a
thread on NEBS stuff!

Thanks,

        Check out section 9.10 "Compatibility with former IBN Equipment with
CBN Currents". I think this more directly relates to the signal connections,
whether or not, they have to be isolated from the equipment chassis until
grounded at the Isolated bonding point. 
        I don't think(?) isolated bonding is much used these days. I know we
used to make equipment that keep signals from chassis (grounding the chassis
to the rack) but most of the RBOC's also wanted the ability to make a signal
to chassis ground, and most seemed to be using that connection.
        This is one of the more confusing issues, at least to me on the NEBS
specifications. Still not sure I know what it says.
        Gary

John & Dorin,

        Please clarify as I am not aware of a requirement to isolate Signal
Ground from Frame Ground.  Please reference GR-1089-CORE, Section 9.6.2 as
well.

Thx,


Joe

Be careful Dorin. For Central Offices, they need to be isolated.

Hi,

I am looking for a comparison, pros and cons, on the signal ground
connected versus not connected to the chassis in a telecom system. Any
help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Dorin
