I have a double wide on a full basement. The electric coming in has 2 hots and then a neutral. The ground wire comes from the panel down to the basement and then Connects to the frame of the trailer. My question is I don’t see where that ground is coming in contact with the earth. Do I need to disconnect the ground wire from the trailer and run it out to a ground rod.

We are unable to assist DIYers per forum rules. You will need to contact an electrical contractor. What you are proposing is dangerous and could result in a fire or fatal shock
