## Description

Erico 615840UPC Ground Rod

Review: Lightning rod for ham radios. - My yard has lots rocks just beneath the the surface. This makes it hard to drive a ground rod in. This rod is steel and has a pointed tip which allowed it to be driven the full length. Plus it has a very hard plate of copper on the surface ans surface conductivity is what counts for electricity. I used a heavy post driver to pound it in, and then finished off with a 3-pound sledge hammer. Its true that it is only 4 feet long, but according to my ham radio books, another rod driven in at 4 feet distance away should pretty well equal a single 8 foot rod.
Review: Great product exactly as to specs. - Exactly as described. It is a STEEL ROD with VERY THICK copper plating! Copper alone is way to soft for a ground rod that has to be DRIVEN into the ground. ERICO does manufacture the best products to exacting standards. Great value for the cost!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the diameter?**
A: The one I got was less than 1/2 inch in diameter. A 1/2 inch ground
clamp would not fit.

**Q: 2” thick? As listed in the product factoid box. What? How about stating the overall length as well.**
A: Mine Has a sticker on it stating. 5/8 inch thick by 4 feet long

**Q: will this work on  cb antenna ground on top of house if so were do you attach to on antenna my antenna doesnt seem to have a place for it help anyone?**
A: Yes.  A 8’ ground copper clad rod is a 8’ copper clad ground rod. NEC code requires ground rods to be 8a’ so don’t buy/use 4’ rods.  Also know NEC Code REQUIRES any ground rods for whatever purpose, including antenna’s so also have a #6 gauge wire run back to the main common house electrical ground/ bond point (usually where the utility power, telco, and CATV are grounded.  Reasons for this are too complicated to detail here, but very important to follow because of possible fire/ shock issues.  Call any licensed local Electrican for help.

**Q: is there a permanent certification code marked at the top of the rod?**
A: no markings

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is a really great real copper grounding rod!
*by C***L on September 24, 2012*

I found this grounding rod after a three hour search marathon on Amazon's Search Engine. It paid off though as I found this Erico grounding rod. It came in about 7-10 days just as the seller said it would. I was worried it wouldn't be made of real copper or it would just be a flimsy hollow copper piping. It came in and I was so impressed and happy with it that I wish I could give it 6 stars. This grounding rod seems to be all copper, it definitely has alot of weight to it! It is sized exactly as described. Both ends were pointed and I drove it into the ground using my hammer. It was not hard to do so. I attached the connector that was paired with it by Amazon, and it worked well, I ran 8 Gauge wire to it and clamped it down. I am using it as a grounding rod for my solar panel and batteries system. It really just feels perfectly right. My system is properly earthed, and the pricing on this ground rod was very good. I can't recommend this item highly enough. Definitely buy it. I will get myself another one just to have it around. Just in case they decide to stop making them!
