I suggest researching shielded grounds very thoroughly;

Drill a one inch hole through on basement floor about one foot or more from the basement wall so you do not drill a hole through the tile drains. pound in a 3/4 inch copper clad or galvanized ground rod through that hole and attach the other end of the center conductor to the STATION GROUND.
