Original poster thought maybe - possibly - potentially -
speculates without any certain fact - that a ground wired
going to an unknown destination might connect to gas line or
to maybe nothing. That above sentence never even implied
earthing a gas pipe was called for by any standard. Again,
because the strawman was posted so many times - connecting gas
line to grounding electrode was never advocated, encouraged,
or even suggested.


Are these _not_ your words from just a few posts ago?

"In original posters case, a wire buried in earth may connect
to buried gas pipe. So that gas pipe does not become central
earth ground, that wire from breaker box should first
encounter a rod (or rods) that are the central earth ground."

And that garbage about the ground rod taking over as the "central earth
ground" is just that. What a joke. Must be time to start a new list.
