Better sound at night?

The water pipe is excellent option , the problem begins when plumbers use plastic parts or when the safety bypass joints are loose or get rusted. Also copper has better conductivity than zinc or steel.

Copper is a bad solution! Copper oxidizes in conjunction with concrete or other building materials! Sad

Hello no32, Since you can start times even a try. Put a piece of copper wire in the earth and leave a piece outside of the earth. After some time you will see how it begins to oxidize (green), and then decays!

Ok is this case it's not a big problem for me , however if you have an idea what to use instead of copper beside zinc I'll be happy to learn and try , also please share if you have other thoughts how to approach ground issues I'll be happy to try it it

The material used is 95% galvanized strip iron in the dimensions 30x3.5 mm. If money does not play, earthing tape V4A (stainless steel, factor x 5)!!

The whole is called foundation grounding. When building the house, a grounding line is laid in the concrete floor of the house. At one end the earthing strip is led out of the concrete and serves as a connection for the potential equalization (see picture, gray box on the wall). Afterwards, the grounding tape can also be laid in the earth.

My house must have something like that somewhere (under the house?), because we have ground (hearth) in all the electical outlets.
What i´m asking for is, if possible, how to do a simple grounding set just for the equipment.
There must be a way to do it, right?

Yes there is but you'll need to measure for safety reasons, run long thick isolated cable to the water line , and clamp it. Make sure to pass the water clock and all other bypasses . I should do wonders

Hello, if you need an extra grounding for the system can do with a grounding rod or pipe. The grounding rod (about 1.5 m) you hit the ground. At the connection point you attach a copper cable and move it to the plant. Now you can make a jam bar and connect all devices
