Basically, it is a process of pulling a separate wire for every ground back to a single common grounding point on the chassis. See if this helps explain it:

See, http:/www.aikensamps.StarGround.html. Usually means all grouds to a central point.
Sorry. I don't know aht happened. I can't access it either. I checked it just before posting it. I typed in star ground in my browser and it came up.
