[QUOTE="Revved Up Sparky, post: 77002, member: 5050"] Those are very untidy supplementary bonds and in my humble opinion bad practice to cut the cable when bonding multiple pipes. The right way would have been to use a stanley knife to strip the insulation and expose an inch of copper for each pipe clamp and wrap it around each bonding clamp on the middle pipes with the pipes on the extreme sides crimped and nice neat loops of equal size between. The safety tags would also be positioned to cover the connection. If all circuits are RCD protected and all earthing and incoming services correct size and correctly connected/ bonded then the installation is seen as using ADS as it's method of protection against electric shock. Supplementary bonding is only needed when the above criteria are not met in which case EEBADS would be applied. [/QUOTE]
