Man their are Grounding Clamps, Grounding Bushings, Bonding Bushings, Grounding Screws, Grounding Clips, AC Connectors, Double Connectors, Standard BX/RX Connectors, grounding and or bonding lugs, sample of a terminal bar and you name it....quite a collection..

All of which ensure proper bonding and grounding, support for some in regards tot he connectors..which are metal so they are also part of the bonding and grounding equation... and well.....just a nice hodgepodge of fittings..

Assorted ground/bond fittings frequently used improperly.
Including my favorite, the weaver clamp.

I'm no electrician so I cannot name them all but I could say how most of them are used except for a few that are not very distunguishable in that pic.
