Yes. But -- the bonding shorts out the buzz, so the shorter the conductors and the larger they are,the less buzz is left. The second component of my advice is to get all power for the station from outlets that share the same green wire -- that is, in the same backbox. And if they're in different backboxes, bond those boxes together with a big short conductor. This further reduces the voltage that they're shorting out, and the noise reduction is additive.
