[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 51403, member: 250"] ONLY if you can prove that it stops, but if its Cast iron up the side of the building and it touches the ground... It is an extraneous conductive part... normally clay bits are not visible above the ground? unless of course you can confirm electrically there is no path or you can visibly see suitable insulated section? A window is NOT an extraneous conductive part... (it don't go into the ground introducing an earth potential) But a metal soil stack IS and does. thus reg 411.3.1.2 protective bonding to all Extraneous conductive parts inc Gas / Water / Oil / Metal waste pipes / Structural steel etc.. p.s. If it was my house I would have put a plastic waste stack in now.. stop the thing corroding and all the poo seeping outBlushing:O [/QUOTE]
