Earthing Rod for 2 wire decoder Systems
  • The controller and the 2-Wire path must be properly surge protected and grounded. Doing so can help prevent damage to the controller and irrigation system and also significantly reduce troubleshooting, repair time and expense.
  • Failure to do so could result in failure of your controller and voiding the warranty.
  • Rain Bird requires the 2-Wire path to be surge protected and grounded with one LSP every 500 feet or every 8 decoders, whichever is smaller.
  • Ensure that all grounding devices are compliant with local electrical codes.
