This, and massively so.Disconnecting any mains grounding is the ultimate stupidity. Totally insane.

Earth spikes are a heap of crap anyway. Figure out how electrical supplies actually work. That will tell you firstly why using grounding spikes rather than mains earthing is utterly stupid, and also why running a balanced mains supply is potentially highly dangerous.

All you are going to do is introduce potential ground loops, which will mean hum. Plus, it's stupidly dangerous.

Earthing is there for a reason.
When I had a new CU put in 2 years ago ,my electrician told me that my main earth go's back to the main grid/transformer which is located at the bottom of our street in a nearby park ,and you cannot get anything better than that !!

You can't, if you have a T-N-C-S (PME) earthing system it doesn't get any better. As Rabski said earth spikes are very poor.
