I must be overthinking this, because apparently nobody else on the internet has asked this question.
Don't I need to place it in a spot where it won't trip people or get run over with the mower? How do you all who have built your fences decide where to place the grounding rods? I have read and watched many instructionals on how to install them, but very little is said about where the most efficient place is for them. I just worry about it being in the way in the future that I should have foreseen ahead of time.
Is it ok to place it really close to the fence?
And while I'm at it, should I pound it in low to the ground, or keep it up high so it's more visible? Should I bury the wire that leads to the charger? (Solar charger placed on a t-post) I don't want to trip over the wire any more than the ground rod. People on YouTube look like they just pounded theirs in Willy nilly any old place. Then they have a 2 foot gap with a wire draped across at waist height.
See. I told you I was overthinking it.
Thank you to anyone who can help me get over this hurdle.
