There are various possibilities to "bond" the sheath / metallic screen (MSC). The bonding corresponds to the earthing of the sheath / MSC.

There are different bonding configurations for cables:

• Isolated MSC: MSC is isolated on both sides

• Single point bonding: MSC is grounded on one side only

• Double bonding: MSC is grounded on both sides

• Cross-bonding: MSC is grounded on both sides and transposed along the cable

The following project includes examples for detailed modelling of all the above bonding configurations, expect for cross-bonding. The detailed modelling of cross-bonding is demonstrated in the following FAQ:
