Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The NEC requires all mechanical elements used to terminate a grounding electrode conductor or bonding jumper to a grounding electrode to be accessible. This means that the termination point must be able to be easily reached and worked on in the event of maintenance or inspection. Painting, waterproofing, and lubrication may also be important for the longevity and effectiveness of the grounding system, but they are not specifically required by the NEC.
