Hi all
I am working at a golf driving range installing some new circuits for a Trackman golf radar system.
The structure around the driving range bays is all exposed steelwork.
There are already lighting circuits installed in the roof area with cables clipped to the steelwork.
I have tested the steel work to the MET, which is within the same structure and there is no connection.
I think the structure (Exposed Conductive Parts) should be earthed to the MET.
The Installation has been Test and Inspected in 2017, but no report of Exposed Structural Steel not being earthed?
Am I missing something here?? Or should the structure be earthed??
The structure is 50m long, if I bond, should I take a reading at the furthest point from the MET?
What readings should I be looking at?
There are other items of metalwork, galvanised struts and tin cladding, I guess I need to bond all these together?
The old lighting circuits are on mcb's only. The new circuits will be on rcbo's
Any advice.
Thanks
GT
