I agree. It depends on the AHJ. In our town, they ONLY require the ground
to the water supply pipe. I found this out AFTER i drove two 8' rods 6'
apart AND ran solid wire all the way across the basement to the water inlet.

So the point is, check with YOUR local jurisdiction.


Codes are all minimum standards and there is nothing wrong with going
beyond those minimums.
