For God's sake, be professional man and bond that tap!

















I've seen it done in a newly refurbed house last year.
 
The pipes may not be conductive but unless it's extremely pure the water in the pipes will be conductive, so that might need bonding.
 
how do you bond water??? stick a bonded probe through the plastic pipe???
 
You could do, or you could just bond the boiler, or each tap. You'll need to bond every tap though, because they won't all be linked when the tap is off.
Or you could install a bit of metal pipe to bond to.
 
now we just been daft!!!

oh i was hoping some body would argue against me not bonding....

guess i will have to just bond the TV aerial as it says must be electrically earthed..!
 
Last one like this I ran bond to boiler as all pipes here are copper.

I can only see this was a box ticking exercise but done none the less.

If you cant do it properly would you like me to come up there and show you how its done?
 
i was waiting for you you Mr Brown...!!

unfortunatly there is no boiler...!! it will be fitted out with electric water heaters and crap like that.... lol

if you wish to take a steady drive to the land of the gods i will open you with welcome arms and a sharpened knife..!! oops lol
 
So, what about exporting PME,

I have been asked by some chap called Ivor Biggun to fit 3 phase electric fences to kill foxes.

Can I export my PME to the chicken coup or do I need to TT it?
