Episode Synopsis

In this episode, E&S Grounding Solutions President David Stockin discusses a requirement for ground rods in the IEC – it may be surprising to learn when this requirement was introduced!There are several reasons why a ground rod should be installed at every home’s electrical service panel, rather than rely upon the ground rod for the utility’s transformer.  Sometimes when a code or standard introduces a new requirement, it raises a lot of questions on how to implement the requirement. The expert team at E&S Grounding Solutions stands ready to offer guidance on installing a safe and compliant grounding system.
