I am planning a perimeter ground system and have run into a snag. My coax will enter the house about 100 feet from my electrical service. Was planning to install six ground rods all tied to the service entrance ground. I had an electrician come out and he told me my house (built in the early 60's) has no ground at the service entrance. No gnd rod, no ufer gnd, nothing. So, he said that the electrical service would have to be upgraded to the tune of $2300 in order to tie the perimeter ground system into the service entry ground.
I've e-mailed and asked him why but I haven't got a response yet. I welcome comments, explanation, and advice on how I can overcome this dilemma without spending thousands of dollars.
Thanks,
