Charlie, when I built my new shop 3 years ago, that was the code
according to the electrical inspector and the electrician. What he did was
put in 2 eight foot ground rods 6 feet apart connected by a common braided
wire cable back to the electical box. It was just one common ground with
two ground rods IMHO.
