Many of our products require a proper ground in order to function properly.
For situations where a proper ground is not available, all you need to do is
drive the grounding rod into the earth to create a ground for any of our prod-
ucts. In some cases, more than one ground rod may be required to meet specifi-
cations. Check your local codes to make sure that the grounding rod will
provide a suitable ground for your location.
