Milehigh:  You come into this thread dismissing it .  Yet you admit you haven't read it all.
That's just damned disrespectful and dishonest.

I am interested in this thread from the point of view of current amplification.
ie current transformers.
If the Don Smith devices work with HV why not with HA  ie High amps.

I read the last four full pages worth of this discussion so I got the "flavour" of the discussion.

I may be hedging my bets, but still:  What's truly disrespectful and dishonest in this thread is the people with no credibility making false claims.  Especially if they expect people to invest time and money in a project that won't work.

I don't believe Clarence is making an intentional false claim ,
and I would like to read more of his reports on this subject and his results , which he says will be forthcoming.

Hello Clarence,

Thank you for offering to help. My goal is 120vac 60hz 25 amp.

The main concern I have is the soil here may not be suitable and I would like to test it.

In your opinion can we safely say that "if you sink two test rods and get .4 volts DC then the soil is good enough"? Do you think .4 volts is a good figure to use?

What total voltage should I be getting from the earth ground system all by itself?

Also how many of your rods are connected 'to ground from the system' and how many are connected 'return to system' ? I ask because I wonder if there is an optimum ratio to hold to.

If you could answer these questions for me then I would know what to shoot for and I can get started on this.

Thank you
Mack
