Bonding 250mcm on 1-1/2" bushing

I know it makes little sense to me. But that is how it was taught

It is taught that there is only one GEC, but that is not always true.

A good example is when the POCO requires a ground rod connected at the meter and the metal water pipe is connected at the main panel inside (also the disconnect means and the location of the SBJ). The conductor between the ground rod and meter is a GEC. The conductor between water pipe and panel is a GEC. Two separate and distinct GEC's.

That's not what the IAEI is teaching

Doesn't surprise me in the least

Does this contradict what they're teaching?

Calls them bonding jumpers between grounding electrodes instead of GEC's.

If every one of those bonding jumpers went directly back to the service neutral then they would all be GEC's.
