grounding
This is the only thing I could come up with.
They are essentially shorting the modules of the machine, while the body of the machine is supposedly at ground potential.

Equipotential insulation
Means that all insulating parts are at the same potential, not necessary 0 (ground).
Shielding is more related to RF interferences
Grounding is not mandatory
