As most people in the USA and Canada have a serious ground current problem, grounding a metal roof will usually mean that whatever current/frequency is on the ground will then be on the roof. If you have metal drain pipes, they will also conduct current/frequency up to a metal roof. Metal siding is the same story. Current with health-damaging high frequencies can "hop on" anywhere along the line of metal siding, drain pipes and roofing, from where it will be broadcast through your living space. All the metal structures you have in your house can do this, such as metal grids holding up tile ceilings, metal beams, ductwork, water pipes, etcetera. Not to mention, of course, your wiring system. In the USA, grounding is dangerous. If you do it, you must check with meters to see if you have made matters better or worse.

I have a metal roof and metal siding on my mobile home. It may all be in my head but I thought I felt better after grounding them as well as the two I-Beams under the home. The more grounding I do the better I feel. But there is a point where you can ground too much and actually create your own magnetic fields with your ground wires. Or so I was told by an electrician. I asked him what kind of meter to use to check which way the current was flowing and I don't remember but I think he evaded the question. He answered by saying it didn't matter which was the current was flowing as long as it was flowing. Hopefully it is flowing into the ground and not coming up through the ground into the home. I used big AWG #2 and AWG #4 wires except for on the roof which I think was AWG #8. Using a trifield meter I get the most current coming off of the roof. I'm getting a 4 reading. What kind of meter should I use? A clamp meter that has a direction flow indicator? Those are more than a hundred bucks I think. --- In [hidden email], SArjuna@a... wrote: > > A while back someone asked about a metal roof and Marc replied: > > "I think a metal roof could definitely cause problems, although > > I suppose it's possible that grounding it might help?" > > > A metal roof is a good receiver of frequencies, which will then be > passed on to the house.

The more grounding I do the > better I feel. I watched a video by the swedish homeopath "Healthy Lars" a while ago. He talks a lot about this problem. He tells people to ground the metal roof for example. If the ground is "dirty", as Shivaji said, you can make your OWN ground by digging a deep hole and put a copperplate there, with a ground cable to it. Now you got private ground, but remember there should be only ONE ground, so the old ground has to be disconnected. In Sweden we need a permit to do this. Ask an electrician for more details. |
I have only one ground to the roof. But it is all kind of connected
as the roof touches the sides, etc. I got several grounds on the sides and underneath. I got different advice from an electrician who installs filters and consults people on these issues. He says to ground the mobile home on the four corners of the home on the underlying I-beams. Mine is not dones exactly like that but I have three or four grounds under the home as well as two grounds on the sides. I use 8 foot ground rods that are pounded into the ground in places that are usually kept moist. I definitely felt better when I did all the grounding. I put in a bunch of stetzer filters and when I plugged in a quantum pro it really made me improve in my symptoms. Right now I'm pretty much leaving well enough alone as it seems to be working. --- In [hidden email], "Roger Olsson" <roger.olsson@p...> wrote: > --- In [hidden email], "quaixemen" <straitguy@s...> wrote: > > > > I have a metal roof and metal siding on my mobile home.

I think the second one is grounded to a piece of metal that is connected to the frame of the mobile home itself. And the first ground wire is connected to the water pipe which is supposed to be the code. The consultant I referred to told me I should add another ground wire from the water pipe to the frame of the home near the place where the ground from the fuse box connects to the water pipe just in case. Using a trifield meter I can detect a small field next to the pipe where it comes up outside where there is an outside faucet. I'm told by this consultant that since I have to put the meter right up next to the pipe before I can detect any field that it is probably okay. The consultant also suggested using extra grounds such as the ones that I have grounded to the frame for the reason that I am using graham- stetzer filters which do not have a ground pin but only use the two prongs when you plug them in. For these filters to work he says you should increase your ground this way. But I also ground the sheeting on the outside and the roof as it seems to me that the metal is absorbing the electricity in the atmosphere and it needs to go to ground instead of just radiating that electricity possibly into the home. > RGO - Now, maybe I should keep my mouth shut and not be the cause of > any worry.

That's what happens when you have a fire and very little insurance money. Today I would have used the insurance money as a down payment and purchased a better one. But back then I didn't have that thought and bought this place. I sheetrocked the entire thing like a regular house using that green moisure resistant sheet rock. I have had many allergies since I was young. They say I was allergic to 21 different things as a baby and even had to get rid of wool carpeting because of me. I was very mindful of what materials I used to rebuild the inside of my home. Everything is real wood as I can't tolerate that fake wood and glue stuff. |
