Lightning strike density on the highveld is very high. I earthed my '80's TV mast correctly and all i got was cracked window  glass when the lightning struck. So i removed the TV mast and the lightning now strikes my neighbours house on the roof corners ( loose or missing bricks.) So i would link solar steel frames together and run a single lead to earth against a solid wall. Preferably aluminium strap or a piece of ABC conductor cable. You want the earth still to be there the next day. A water pipe is the best bet. Avoid connecting the inverter and its battery to the same earth. Connect these items to the house earth.You dont want any spikes going into the house.
