I believe the single point ground is to hold all equipment grounds at a 
common potential; so that there is no potential or voltage between any 
two component grounds.  Short and minimally inductive conductors from 
equipment to that single point minimize that potential difference.  
Equipment grounds and the single point ground must not be connected to 
the system neutral, except at the service entrance and at the power 
company equipment.  There must be no path between system neutral and 
ground anywhere else.
