Does any one splice or tap to the GEC?
What do you use? I'm upgrading a duplex with 100 amp panels side by side in the basement.
Rather than run two #6 solid cu from each panel to the ground rods outside, I'd like to run from one panel to the rods. Then run #6 from the 2'nd panel and tap onto the 1'st panel's GEC using irreversible compression-type connectors. I believe this is permitted by NEC 250.64 (C) and (D).

I've checked with 2 supply houses and they evidently do not carry a compression tool or the connectors. Anyone have experience with this?
