Re: [TCML] Ground

Actually it depends on what you are going to use it for, 6 inch is most  
likely enough for smaller coils only (you are going to use this for TC I  
guess ;) ), however this depends on it's radius. There is no reason to use  
such an expensive material by the way, a 1.5-2 meter steel rod is already  
a good ground. Better pour some water so the soil around the rod would get  
in a better contact with it (I recommed at least five rods for a constant  
ground however). You can also use a metal sheet or any other big metal  
object (if you want it fast and easy then just find any big piece of metal  
junk and bury it somewhere with a wire attached). Afterwards, check the  
ground - you can just connect a lightbulb between the hot socket output  
and your new ground terminal. MAKE SURE OF THE LOW GROUND CABLE INDUCTANCE  
HOWEVER!
