[QUOTE="roys, post: 426657, member: 5044"] Round our 11 kV switch rooms we had (from a fading memory) a bare 120mm2 cable buried with a bare 70mm2 T'eed of it at regular intervals to an earth rod. To T of the 70mm2 from the 120mm2 we CAD welded it which is a great job. Just speak to Steps I am sure he has ran some big lumps of copper through his mangle recently. Like the idea of putting in a good earth while you have a trench dug. on a totally separate note don't think the copper pipe is going to last too long in my house, my water is supplied from my own well, it has a ph of 5. When ever a tap drips it leaves a blue stain and if my wife washes her hair it turns it a nice bluey green colour due to copper leaching from the pipe work and cylinder. [/QUOTE]
