Hi engineers i need some help
we have this building being constructed and i have been asked if we can install the earthing rods under the basement and not outside the building. Can it be done ? Or is it against the code ?

At one time it was the duty of the meter reader to look at the customer instalation to see if they could see any problems, such as a loose ground connection onto the ground rod.
By placing the grounding connection in a basement, it makes it difficult to inspect, and the likely hood is it won't be inspected.
