my house is most definitely not adequately grounded.

Me and a few friends are going to sink 2 eight foot poles into the ground, galvanized steel, and there is a method to connecting them too, with a copper wire going back to the box.

There seems to be several grounds going TO the box, so unless some wires are seriously messed up, the internal wiring looks ok.

the current ground is hooked to a water line, and also another ground is hooked to an old water line.

Apparently, there are two grounds here, and one really sucks. So that one we are replacing.

He isn't sure if that will SOLVE The issue, but it NEEDS to be done.

The only issue with driving the stakes are the amount of rocks in the soil, and the fact that there's a sewer line nearby. So, the Area sewer authority is coming by tomorrow, because, interestingly enough, the landlords (they are my neighbors) are having a problem with their sewer grinder not turning on.
