Just have a some Questions. I work for Charter communications and there is always some disagreement on proper bonding. If you have a MDU where your services are well away from the Bldg groung is it acceptable to drive a ground rod and not run a line around to the service ground of the Bldg.(close to 100' away) the tap is closer to the service but not individual splitter boxes/
Can the Taps be grounded and not the individual drop?

What about if you cannot get to a service ground(older stucco houses) is that something that the customer should be forced to provide)

Can you explain why a loose ground/bond is a bad thing..( We have one employee that doesn't believe it makes a difference..)​
