If you ground wire is not long enough can you connect 2 wires together and then ground it to the grounding post?
* Yes. Extending the ground wire will have no adverse effect and will properly ground the device. * It is important that the splice be accomplished properly. That means that the extension conductor [wire] be of adequate size to carry the load, the surface of both conductors at the splice be clean and free of corrosion which could impede current flow, and a sound [both mechanically and electrically] splice be made.
