How many clamps are allowed on a ground Rod??
per-250.70 (2011) you are allowed one per ground rod, I have one with 3, and
the company would like to install another one on the same rod, should I just drive another ground rod into the ground?? see picture.
any and all information, Thank you.

Wouldn’t an intersystem bonding connector work better?
 
250.70 does not say only one clamp on a ground rod. It says one grounding electrode conductor per clamp, unless the clamp is listed for more than one conductor.
 
The Master I apprenticed under would have had a field day with me if I had terminated the wire type GEC's pointed up like in the picture instead of down towards the earth.... just sayin. :)

Why not run one wire from ground rod and mount a ground plate on the wall
