[QUOTE="PC Electrics, post: 104284, member: 650"] If you're getting 20Mohm between the pipework and MET, then [I]strictly speaking [/I]you do not need to bond. However I agree with Lurch. It only takes someone to modify the pipework at some time in the future for it to suddenly introduce earth potential and need bonding. In your situation, when you issue your MWC (or on your invoice if the work doesn't require any certs) put a note that if the pipework should be modified in the future, then it should be retested to see if it needs bonding. If you've got a labeller, you could put a note on the CU. [/QUOTE]
