Is there a minimum size for the cover on an earth rod?
Is there a minimum size for the cover on an earth rod?
Due to having an UPS, I have an earth rod for the inverter should the DNO supply fail, this is connected to the rest of the earths, and where I intend to pave in due time, the cover is a conduit box, with a sticker on it. This seems rather small to protect against shock should I have a loss of PEN.
If I cover with slabs this should then be OK, but can't remember any regulations as to size of cover on an earth rod, is there any?
