I know this is not a right place for this type of Q but i don't have else :'(:'(:'(

Not only you can but you must do this, or put more than one (ground rod ) and connect them to each other.

Dear zeuscane

thanks for your replay, you meant that I can connect the second anti lightning (new) directly to the exist ground rod that already had been ground the old anti lightning. right??
because I don't have permission to drill any more to add another ground rod.


thanks again
Best Regards

Yes, you have to connect at the existing lightning rod to ensure the equipotential of the structure.
