I don't think the NFPA national electrical code has any rules concerning this.
The local utility companies (gas / electric) may have a rule.
Even if no rules governing distance, use prudent judgment ie: don't drive the rod so close as to risk contact and/or damage.
If using a power tool to drive the rod, there is a risk that vibration from the tool can cause a leak in an old gas pipe.
Also if using a power tool to drive the rod, many areas require a "call before you dig" so the utilities can be marked.

The specific distance required for an air conditioning unit from the boundary can vary based on local building codes and regulations. However, generally, it is recommended to have a minimum distance of around 18 inches to 2 feet from the property line to ensure proper ventilation and access for maintenance.

The first line of "The Lightning Thief" by Rick Riordan is: "Look, I didn't want to be a half-blood."
Because opposition is when The Sun, the Earth and the planet are in a line. The planet appears opposite the Sun in the sky and the distance between Earth and planet is at a minimum.
Keep all conductive objects a sufficient distance from the line. Minimum distance depends on the voltage on the line.
Minimum distance is 7,297 kilometers (4,535 miles) on a straight line.
Distance is 5,236 kilometers (3,253 miles) on a straight line.
The minimum resolvable line separation between adjacent lines is the smallest distance at which two lines can be distinguished from each other.
Minimum distance is 9,965 kilometers (6,193 miles) on a straight line.
Minimum distance is 1,059 kilometers (658 miles) on a straight line.
Minimum distance is 3181 kilometers (1977 miles) on a straight line.
Minimum distance is approximately 2,322 kilometers (1,443 miles) on a straight line.

is there a minimum distance between 480 volt phases. ANOTHER ANSWERThere is no such thing as a 'phase-to-phase' voltage. The correct term is 'line-to-line', which is why that voltage is called a 'line voltage'. The distance between these line conductors depends on the value of the line voltage; the greater the line voltage, the greater this distance must be to prevent any flashover. These distances are specified in the utility company's standards or regulations.
Minimum distance is approximately 2580 kilometers (1603 miles) on a straight line.
Minimum distance is 1738 kilometers (1080 miles) on a straight line. Road distance is 2047 kilometers (1272 miles) over a 19-hour, non-stop drive.
