On one project I worked on a few years back the customer had a spec sheet for the things telco needed for their equiptment rack that was to be installed on their premise.
One thing our company did was the installation of the ground wire for the rack.
The telco specs basically said a #6 ran to the nearest accessible vertical building steel and terminated with a properly installed crimp connector that got bolted to the steel.
On the rack end they asked for a coil of 10' of wire hanging at the rack.
Maybe a RFI to telco is in order because they sometimes ask for things that an electrician might not think to be necessary or overkill.
