What is your earth rod resistance now?
Adding an extra rod is not guaranteed to lower the total resistance.
If you are currently getting 10 ohms than adding another rod will not
really help, however if you have 150ohms or so, then an extra, or deeper
rod may well help.


Should really be earth loop *impedance* tested at 50Hz.


True, but I doubt the inductive and capacitive reactance components
are too significant. I'm willing to learn though.
