The present invention provides a system for coupling a coaxial cable with a power ground wire in which a coaxial splice is attached directly to a common service power ground wire via a connector. The direct attachment creates a bonding point that prevents electricity on the drops from entering a building via interior wiring. The connector attaches on one end to a common utility service ground wire. The connector further connects two ends of coaxial drop cable such that the cable is spliced at the point of the connector. This dual bonding results in decreased installation costs due to diminished need for additional ground wire. The dual bonding provides a further advantage in that it reduces the differential in electrical potentials between the power utility and cable television systems. This results in a more direct path to ground and superior electrical characteristics.
