Electric Eagle, you said "Trumpy, We are allowed to use a 6' rod for temp poles, but for main service grounding it's an 8' rod. The NEC does allow us to cut the rod off if it hits bedrock, however I don't think you could prove the it was "bedrock" that you hit."

This has to be a new code article. Where does it allow one to cut off ground rods, or, for that matter, where does it allow 6' rods?
