Better than no ground at all, but not reliable. Some codes allow it, but we
would never use it for a main ground.

Subject: [RE-wrenches] Water Pipes as Grounding Electrodes
I've had so much conflicting input on the points of Grounding Water pipes
or
using them as Grounding Electrodes for systems in places like New York and
San Francisco.
Could someone be kind enough to set me straight on the intentions,
functions
and applications of this?
