Did electrician for charger ground to your water heater?

[itsallaboutme]

I just had an inspection done and it did not pass for a few minor things. It also did not pass because he said the water heater should be grounded. The electrician came back two days ago and fixed everything but did not complete the ground for the water heater. He said he didn't have what he needed to ground it. He was supposed to come back yesterday but did not show up. (will be calling him today) Is this something that was done when you guys had your charger installed?

I had to have the water heater grounded when I had the powerwalls installed, but not for the Nema 14-50 charging plug.

Not only does the Hot Water Heater need to be properly grounded but so does a proper ground be connected on both sides of the water meter. In addition two ground rods must be installed 6 feet apart by the electric meter outside the house.

They did ground the water meter and electric meter. My hot water does not use a copper pipe. It is the flexible ones.

I have a gas water heater. A grounding strap was installed on the water lines for the water heater when I replaced my aged fuse panel with a new service panel, 200A service upgrade. The home's original ground connection was to the cold water supply.
