What’s the best way to effect a single point ground in this combination?
Stop worrying about "single point" and simply bond EVERYTHING together
by the shortest practical path. In the power entrance panel for ANY
premises, earth must be bonded to the enclosure itself, and there must
be a bond between neutral and that enclosure. By EVERYTHING I mean
everything in your home that is grounded, including CATV entrance, Telco
entrance, power entrance, your antenna entrance, your shack operating
desk, structural steel if there is any, cold water (if it's metallic),
lightning protection, etc.
In general, you can have as many earth connections as you like, they can
be anywhere you like, but they MUST all be bonded together. Anything NOT
bonded is unsafe.
