Like water returning electrons always follow
the path of least resistance. The electrons follow areas of higher moisture
and mineral content. |
Soil is not a good conductor. Dry, frozen, or non-conductive soils can cause your earth return system to become less effective.
Check for poor connections at the ground rods caused by oxidation or corrosion. |

The ground bed for your charger
is much like an antenna for a radio or television. The larger the antenna,
the better wave collector it is and the better reception you get on a TV
or radio. The ground bed works in the same way, only it collects returning
electrons from the soil. |
