Two townhomes(common wall between them),seperate electric services on far ends.The water comes in on the far side of one townhouse,branches off to a water meter for house number one,then continues over to second home through cieling joists to a second water meter.
My friend is doing a service upgrade on the second home. He asked me if he has to run a ground wire through both homes to where the water comes in to the building.I said yes,but his inspector said he can ground where it comes in to the second home.I think the inspector is wrong.What should my friend do?(by the way the water pipeing is bonded through the hot water heater)


Any comments?
