Sorry for the OT post, but there seems to be a lot of electrical expertise here.
I have a building adjacent to our riding ring. My daughter would like to add lights to the ring for occasional use as the days get shorter. I have a portable generator already that pretty much lives back in this building since it has kind of morphed into the tractor/equipment shed.

What should I worry about for grounding?
