Site Grounding Recommendations
For many sites, the NRG Systems Grounding Kit provides all the needed parts to earth ground your
TallTower and instrumentation. The Grounding Kit includes a copper-clad lightning spike, copper ground
wire, and two copper-clad ground rods.
It is recommended that you determine the soil type of your site and classify its resistivity. The lower the
resistivity, the better the earth ground is.
