    Terrible First Impressions

    I know this topic has ventured into other areas, but just to give you guys an update on the OP... The supervisor / QC guy came by and looked at the installation. He said the mounting location was ok, not preferred, but ok. He applied a little more sealant around the mounting points and was...

    Not trying to take either side here, but what I understood the QC as wanting was a double line run to the grounding rod. I am no electrician, but I am guessing he means coax and not the ground itself? So that would be less than 20' of actual grounding cable but would consist of about 120' of...

    Terrible First Impressions
