Where do I need ground and neutral bonded?
Where do I need a ground rod?
Where do I need ground just run between the panels?
On the antennas....
have a 45' tower with 60' coax that goes to the antenna discharge tubes (ADTs). a ground wire would be approximately 14'. do I use like 10 gauge and run the 14' to the antenna ground rod? Or do I put a ground rod beside ADTs and then run 6 gauge to the antenna ground rod?
Does the antenna ground rod and the meter ground rod need to be linked together with 6 gauge? If a ground rod was added for the ADTs, how does that play into the above?
Do I ground the radio power supplies and radios to the antenna ground rod or keep it on the house ground rod? The 2500va pure sine-wave battery backup currently feeds three rooms with tons of electronics. It's a mobile home, so very easy to just run cabling underneath to connect the entertainment center to the office and the PCs in the adjacent room.
==========
I use a ground rod simply for earthing/meditation and did that thinking it was for lightning protection and not dealing with the dirty energy of AC devices. I have the 10 megaohm or maybe 1 megaohm plugged into the cable anyway. Do I ground this with 6 gauge to the meter ground rod? Do I leave it alone? Someone may hit the phone pole at the street and cause a short that goes down the meter ground rod (if it can?). Meter loop gets hit by lightning would mean I could be the grounding target if currently meditating.
