2.1.1.5.1 Earth Ground
WARNING - Risk Of Electric Shock
It is imperative to follow local electrical regulations and
codes.
If an earth ground is not established, the following grounding method is a
recommendation; however, it is imperative to follow local electrical regulations and
codes.
1 Install two 3.0 m (10.0 ft.) long copper-clad steel ground rods into the soil,
spaced at least 1.9 m (6.2 ft.) apart. Ideally, the distance between the rods
should be at least twice the rod length.
2 Pour a solution of magnesium sulfate or copper sulfate around each rod to
reduce the resistance to earth ground.
3 Test the ground rods using a Ground Resistance Tester specifically designed
for that purpose (a common ohmmeter is not recommended).
4 After verifying that a good earth ground has been achieved, connect the rods
together using #6 AWG copper wire.
