NAMD Energy types

Hi all,

I am using the NAMD Energy plugin to get internal energies of a
selection of my system. However, I am confused by the fact that I am
getting a non-zero Bond, Angle and Dihed energies even for a selection
of two atoms that are not bonded, eg. for two CB atoms as shown below.
Could somebody explain where these numbers come from?

Thanks,
