    Nec-covering of ground wire from the ground rod to the water pipecables
    I installed a new service meter panel and ground rod. The ground rod is connected to the meter panel via a #4 copper wire to a water pipe located 10 feet away. Is is allowable to bury the #4 wire between the ground rod and water pipe to keep it from being a trip hazard and protect the wire?

    Thanks

    Is is fine to bury it 12 inches and eliminate the tripping hazard.
