Hello everyone,
I have a small problem at the moment.
My house has four gutters.
Two of them are connected, and the other two are just decorative covers.
The foundation slab of my house is equipped with a grounding rod.
After the house was assembled, these rods were sticking out of the ground at each corner.
Out of ignorance, I cut off three of them, so now I only have one left that can be connected to the gutter.
Is that sufficient?
Is a single connection enough for lightning protection?
Normally, there are two downspouts installed on a house.
Are both usually connected?
Best regards

Contradiction!@Dipol As we can see, we’re dealing with a non-expert here… so it was explained in a way that anyone can immediately understand what is meant...
With the "correct" explanation, most people still don't get it… then you have to start explaining what a potential is, and so on, and we’d still be discussing the original poster’s question in three weeks… even though everything has already been clarified...
P.S.
I’ve been waiting to see when you would finally say something
