We have a Manufacturing plant,Cable company buried a large coax from Pole to side of our building.We are going to run broadband internet with it.They drove a ground rod directly below there box,which has a grounding splitter inside.They then go into the building to there Hub.I noticed they did not bond to our service that is about 20 feet away,and our service is Also a transfer switch that is located on our lawn,Not against our building.Reading art:800 a few times,My question is Does there (looks like) #10 bare copper from there splitter to there ground rod need to be insulated? Also we are going to ask them to connect to our service ground rod.Is it a requirement to have two ground rod nuts? One for the #10 to the splitter and a separate one for the #6 copper going to our service/building ground system? Also does the #6 need to be insulated as well?.Ive also read that they have listed wire for this purpose,So I am guessing THWN won't meet the requirement.Thank you
