John, what did you end up doing isfa grounding your Solar Panel rails???

Personally, I would have pulled an 8ga from each roof corner down the side of
the house to a point about 3' above g.l. and then from there in a 45* angle
out to a ground rod.  Then below ground, tie the corner ground rods together
around the house perimeter.

And, I do NOT like the above suggestion I have just made either.  So, what is
the better suggestion???
