Good morning,
I work at a Government facility and therefore have no inspector to pose this question to.
Contractor is installing a Lightning protection system between buildings. They have run the bare copper conductor in a trench approximately 2-4" into the black top. What is the mininum depth for this installation, should it be protected in a raceway? They also used mechanical connections at the ground rod, which will be buried in the black top. Is this acceptable? If this is indeed a violation would you please reference the code article.
Thank you,
Jerry
