I have a shower building that has its own panel and is fed from a distrabution panel. There are ground rods at the panels. does the frame of this building need to be bonded to a ground rod? 250.104(c) states it should be bonded to the panel.
 
Re: Shower unit grounding

Yes you must provide all the bonding required by 250.104

Also is this shower building is fed from another building?

If so you must use all the avalable electrodes just like the building had it's own service.

250.32 Two or More Buildings or Structures Supplied from a Common Service.
(A) Grounding Electrode. Where two or more buildings or structures are supplied from a common ac service by a feeder(s) or branch circuit(s), the grounding electrode(s) required in Part III of this article at each building or structure shall be connected in the manner specified in 250.32(B) or (C). Where there are no existing grounding electrodes, the grounding electrode(s) required in Part III of this article shall be installed.

No, its fed from a generator to a 1600 amp distrabution panel to a 200 amp panel feeding the 63 amp panel in the shower unit.
