I am trying to find the requirement for labeling the ground electrode or GEC?

I see durable labels used often but I am trying to find out if there is a code reference/requirement.

110.21 is the best angle I have come up with. I didn't see anything in Art. 250.

Thanks in advance!

There is no requirement to mark or identify the gec as far as I know.

I agree with Dennis although, many large ground clamps come with a tag with some wording along the lines of "do not remove" but this is not a requirement.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks- I have seen the tag and assumed there was a requirement to denote/label it as an electrical connection... but when I looked I couldn't find such requirement. Thank you for the help!
