This is an after the fact picture - but shows where the ground is run to earth, just to the left of the PVC. This is the front of the driveway adjacent to the patio. The ground wire (grounding electrode conductor) is size 16, which runs to a piece of metal rod with is run into the ground 1.8 meters. The metal is 4 hun. Of significance, since surprisingly the electric department inspector wanted to know the specifics, as now apparently grounded electrical is required by the electric department.
