According to my back door neighbor who himself owned a large electrical contracting business, it is a little more involved than you might think. We need four grounds and one will be tied into the ground that comes with the house. They go into the ground at least ten feet. He says copper is better than aluminum.

We are right now evaluating people to do it and getting prices.

I won't let Sweetie climb on the roof anymore. I am too young to be a widow.
