Anyone ever heard of this from the Chicago electrical code? Read this elsewhere and I'm not sure if this is a legitimate code citation.
Chicago Code 18-27-250.64b.
Grounding Electrode Conductor. A grounding electrode conductor or its enclosure shall be securely fastened to the surface on which it is carried. All grounding electrode conductors shall be installed in rigid metal conduit, intermediate metal conduit, or electrical metallic tubing, which shall connect directly to the service disconnecting means enclosure and extend continuously to the grounding electrode to which it shall be securely connected by means of an approved clamp.
Raceways for grounding electrode conductors shall not contain other conductors. The outer finish of an insulated grounding electrode conductor need not be identified except that it shall not be white or green. Flexible conduit and armored cable shall be permitted to be used in existing buildings for grounding purposes only where this ground is concealed or a major portion of the ground is concealed. An approved nonferrous metal tag shall be attached to the ground clamp giving warning against its removal.
