I did one very similar in western Minnesota, high sand soil in an area that has
a fairly high lightening strike count, I ran the equipment ground back along
with the conductors, I also used an 8" post hole digger with an extension to go
down 5 feet, filled it with concrete around the 1.5" galvanized pipe legs and
it is about ten feet high to top of modules, the lightening ground is the
concrete incased electrodes, This is a UBC 90 mph area, it is still there and
working after more that 10 years. So you always always need a an equipment
ground, and I could have put a ground rod in but the concrete encased electrode
is just fine.

Hello,
I have been looking at ground mount methods lately, specifically the DPW
Multi-Pole-Mount setup and was wondering about the method used to ground the
modules and racking. How is this done?
Thanks as always!
Jesse
