[QUOTE="Andy™, post: 51402, member: 2012"] But.... are we then not adding more of a risk by bonding the soil stack? mostly if the house is PME. soil stack is likely to be cast iron to ground then clay onwards, so if it is bonded and there is a fault... you have just made that pipe outside live when i otherwise wouldnt be. kinda getting back to the unnecessary bonding of metallic window frames mentioned [URL="http://www.talk.electricianforum.co.uk/showthread.php?t=3687"]here[/URL] or could it be argued that it cant be extraneous because its not metallic into the ground, it stop at the ground [/QUOTE]
