I am upgrading my electrical service to 200AMP from 100 service. The power company told me I need to run 2ot copper for 195 Amps and a new ufer ground. I have tried to drive a 1/2" gound rod into the earth, but I cannot get it further than 4 feet in. I tried a second rod, thinking that I hit a rock, and same thing. I've tried the water and such, but cannot get it further in. I now have 2 rods 4 feet in the ground and 4 feet out. I have a 60lb jack hammer with a driver, but it will not go any further. What are my options?
