Thanks. :thumbup:I'm really digging the wera square drivers at the moment. I'll take some close ups of the wrench soon and repost.

Some stuff, love this thread. :beer: Newer purchases. Anyone know what brand of pipe wrench this is?

You're correct, It's an Apex. I purchased it at a flea market for two bucks. I pretty much use it as a beater and it's lasted. I took this after I bought it:

Hands down, best thread on the entire internet. :bowdown: I use these daily. (electrician, yes)

It is an '08 change to the nec. In California we are still on the '05 (cec '07) so if the OP was here, there would have been no problem with the install.

My humble opinion is that you need to rent a hammer drill. It'll make quick work of those pesky electrodes.

Haha! I agree, only they should only be able to pound it in with an old pair of linesman pliers. Really though, I've sledged in more ground rods than I care to remember. :beer:

Yes, the code changed for detached buildings in the 2008.

Hammer drill. You'll get them down there. :thumbup:

No, you can't cut them in half. That would defeat the purpose. I drive ground rods all the time and I use a bosch hammer drill with rod attachment bit.

Hi everyone, I'm a certified electrician and I work on residential and commercial projects. I found this forum searching tools and found the tools from the old world thread. Awesome thread, great forum. :beer:

If you're running mwbc in pipe and you're on the 2008, you need to group them by some means whether zip-tie or not. :thumbup:

Very nice looking job. Although, zip-ties would have accomplished the same thing. :thumbup:
