It is the conductor that is used in service distribution panels that bonds the distribution panel's neutral bus bar to the ground electrode (rod). This brings all of the distribution panel neutrals that are connected to the same supply system to the same potential, that being zero. Should a supply service neutral open this ground wire will maintain the systems integrity until repairs can be made.
conductor used to. connect the system grounded conductor
No, the bare copper grounding conductor can not be in a conduit with other conductors. It can be in conduit by itself to provide mechanical protection for the wire.
3/0 awg wire
In Canada the grounding electrode requirement is for two steel 5/8" x 10' copper clad rods spaced 10 feet apart.
The grounding conductor of a service distribution is sized by the ampacity of the service. By just stating the wire size, this does not give this information, as many variables enter into what wires are used depending on length, ambient temperature and insulation factor to name a few.
Which is the mínimum distance between the electrode an a grounding part.

No, the bare copper grounding conductor can not be in a conduit with other conductors. It can be in conduit by itself to provide mechanical protection for the wire.
The conductor used to connect equipment or circuit to an earth electrode is earth bond or in some cases a supplementary bond. This will be generally carried out using a copper tape or an earth cable.
3/0 awg wire
No, but the frame of a metal house must be grounded to an approved grounding electrode.

NO some armored cable has a ground some sealtite has copper in the helix wit the drain shield some liquite has no conduction at all all armor is a helix which is a coil and acts as insulation at hi frequency xlpe cross linked polyethylene is an insulator service cable is never used for grounding grounding electrode conductor grounding equipment conductor grounding conductor are all separate from service cables if a tall trucks hits an overhead cable you dont want to lose the ground in short NO
The grounding conductor is green, green with a yellow tracer or bare copper.
Assuming your reference to "earthing" is grounding (Grounding Electrode Conductor), a pipe is, as it sounds, a pipe (i.e. water pipe). A plate would be, as it sounds, a square (or rectangular) copper plate which would be buried in the ground.
