I would think step 1 should be to make sure you're not pounding a steel
rod through a sewer pipe or into your 240V power line.


Oh... No problem.... I don't have a steel rod. I'll be pounding a brass rod
through utility conduits.

The most common ground rods that you would find at the hardware or
electrical store are copper clad steel. Be sure to solder the ground
wire to the rod, not just a clamp. You may have to use a propane torch
to get enough heat for the soldering.
