2.Eliminate the migration of stray charges when connecting between equipment. To do this, connect a wire between the Technical Earth terminal and a suitable point on the rack.

The Technical Earth provides a suitable connection between the equipment and the installation to give a low impedance path at normal operating frequencies.
