  • There’s apparently two main earth conductors with unknown destinations, a 6 mm and a 10 mm with a RA of around 30 ohms on each, but Zdb is 1.43 omms with everything connected due the steel gas pipe, which is probably under the hedge.


    It’s not dangerous, but there is not a identifiable means of earthing probably due to the rods being under block paving.


    It needs a new rod to satisfy the requirements of having an identifiable means of earthing. The easiest place to put it would be between the house and the substation, avoiding underground services and the rain water drain, but that’s a bit close to the substation.


    So probably best to avoid the easiest option.
