Earth Electrode Concern.

Zoomup
I was working in a large back garden today. The garden shed was connected to an old caravan supply (caravan gone) and the underground S.W.A. cable from the house had been  converted to TT earthing originally for the caravan and now for the shed sockets and lighting. As an earth electrode somebody had used a length of  10mm galvanised threaded rod (studding). What are your views about its suitability please?

    If you drive a new extended rod the couplers open up the hole leaving a gap around the upper rods, only the first rod to go in is actually a tight fit within the hole, if this is of any consequence is debatable.


    It does mean that a new long rod that has couplers is wobbles about in the hole at the surface.
