[QUOTE="lee3366, post: 518092, member: 34013"] Hi Thanks for the replies. To confirm the car charger is located inside the garage, the earth cable runs directly from the car charging unit, through the garage wall into my garden where it is attached to an earth rod. There are two armoured cables, one for the car charger and one for the power / lights. The car charger has its own fuse within the consumer unit and can be isolated independently of any other electrical unit. The earth rod is covered (with a cover similar to that posted in the first reply by Murdoch). My concern is both the earth rod and earth cable are exposed / visible, I have young children, and was just concerned around the safety of the set up. Thanks Lee [/QUOTE]
