New Service Ground

Construction of the new electrical service ground is underway.  

The first picture shows the radio room connection panel with #4 service ground coming through the wall. The ground wire can be directly traced back to the Sand Mountain service entrance ground rod and no other ground rod.

The second picture shows the entrance way connection panel with #4 service ground coming from the outside through the 1" PVC.  The ground wire is connected directly to the Sand Mountain service entrance ground rod and no other ground rod.

Clamped to the service entrance ground are two additional ground wires: 
  1. one to a grounding strip.
  2. one to a #4 wire that goes through the wall into the radio room and grounds the radio room entrance panel.
Let's discuss!  All thoughts welcome.
