charity Ze

[Tridentsystems]

8 ft 5/8 rod driven in to undisturbed agricultural land. Rocky soil, clay at four foot depth. Guesses for Ze in a postcard please ! Supply goes in tomorrow so result soon. Closest guess picks the charity and I will send it £50. Just a bit of fun. Two decimal places please !!!!

my guess 32.28

 

[Sintra]

Great idea I will go for 27.6 ohms

 

[Marvo]

Can you give me a hint please, what kind of ground have you got (chalk, clay etc)

 

[Tridentsystems]

It's brown with a green top.

 

[Tridentsystems]

Not chalky, clay at four foot about three foot thick then back to rocky.

If he got anywhere near that with a single 8ft rod I'm gonna kick my wife's dog in disgust. I was on site today where my team put 14 2.3meter rods in last week and we're still sitting with 244ohms I've had to program another 2 days next week for improvement. I hate the UK with your 30 ohms at 3ft!!

I know Glenn knows a thing or two about earth rods so I'm going with 450 in that case.

Probably because lump hammers aren't forced to make the tea four times a day.
