Services, Grounding & Bonding第 45 / 120 题
What is the minimum length of a rod-type grounding electrode?
a.10 feet
b.6 feet
c.8 feet
d.5 feet
解析
Rod and pipe electrodes must be at least 8 feet long and must have at least 8 feet in contact with the soil once installed. The 10-foot value is associated with the minimum earth contact required of a metal underground water pipe electrode, and 5 or 6 feet fall short of the rod requirement.
