Cadweld's are the best way to go. I'm not sure if they make the
inexpensive One-Shot's for EHS ground wire or not, but
last time I checked, RF Connection had them in their catalog, so you might
give them a call. They advertise in QST and they are on the web. Cadweld
is an exothermic welding system using a mold on the top of the rod. It's
what our power company uses for
all below-ground substation grounding systems and I think most of the
commercial tower people use them as well.

Subject: [TowerTalk] Galvanized ground rod connector
I am getting ready to add 3 ground rods to my tower. I will use galvanized
ground rods and ehs cable to the tower. What is the appropriate connector
for the connection between the ground rod and ehs cable and the ehs cable
and the tower?
Thanks for your input
