[QUOTE="smoka, post: 5838688, member: 606721"] Good post [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] DC doesn't have impedance since there is no phase angles involved (just AC). I think you mean to say resistance. Also I don't think measuring the resistance of your ground is pointless. Resistance is a good way to measure the quality of the conductor. If your ground is passing through several welds then it will have a higher resistance than a run of 1/0 OFC wire. (You will probably need a good meter to notice the difference though) But I see your point, if someone bolts their ground but doesn't scrape off the paint, then the resistance will be low initially since the bolt is well grounded, but when running more power the bolt will become a bottleneck to the electrical system. I just think its not pointless to check the resistance, but it can be misleading to some. [/QUOTE]
