Got it thanks. I thought one ground rod went to the exterior of the building to ground it. Do they make a lug to attach the ground wire from the main panel since its like a 4 or 6 gauge wire it will not fit into the ground bar?

Will this work?

Around here the commercial guys install "delta pads" called different names.

Three 8' rods, 8' apart in the shape of a triangle. Figure they knew more than me and I went that route.
