Default Question on grounding rods

Protection. Don't even think of confussing the two....


And there's a third reason and set of requirements for grounding which
is different from both of those -- AC safety ground. Its requirements
are dictated by the NEC and local electrical codes, and it shouldn't be
confused with either of the other two.
