If you were checking grounds in a newly developed project with new houses, what would you use to check the grounding to each house?  The fire hydrant.  You would run heavy 00 welding cable from the hydrant to each house and measure the resistance.  Out in the country you would use your well casing as your reference and measure resistance to various points. RF as far as I am concerned is less than 1 OHM.  Electrical standards is 25  ohms or so.  Every thing radiates so you have to take other measures.
