[QUOTE="steptoe, post: 396820, member: 7"] OK, so having read most of this, seems the OP is continually reading that the purpose of bonding is to ensure a good earth path in the event that you touch a live part while touching the water main, maybe you should re-familiarise yourself with the requirements for bonding, that is not its sole purpose, still, imho, it requires bonding, to not bond is a deviation from the regs, and should be noted as such, or, get in writing that the owner does NOT want the work doing, and state such on certificate along with a copy of the owners statement. it was always drilled into me as an apprentice that cost or inconvenience is no reason not to apply all safety measures required or words to that effect.
