[QUOTE="Evans Electric, post: 478674, member: 1408"] I've seen it quite a few times , plumber shoves his pipe under the floor ...damages a cable .. or rodent chews the PVC off .... bare conductor is touching the free standing pipe . Or he does some soldering & melts the cables . There is no boiler ..say . You may have noticed that I find in difficult to make the transition from being told we MUST bond ALL metal pipework with 6mm G/Y , Gas & water , sinktops MUST be bonded . If this is not carried out the Electricity Board will refuse to connect the installation . You have to create a Faraday Cage because a phase reversal on the PME supply could have disastrous results. Followed by , Oooops we dropped a clanger , all bonding is now 10mm . And today ....Oh don't bother , the RCDs will cover everything . Just being Devil's Advocate here. [/QUOTE]
