[QUOTE="Evans Electric, post: 465515, member: 1408"] I thought it was 600mm from the meter OR where it enters the property ( Taking into account those external gas meters ) I was working at a large house last year , A gas man showed up to do something to the boiler , after 1/2 hour he calls me into the garage , says the bond is more than 600 from the meter ( it was about 1mtr away) Gasman; "You'll have to correct that " Electman; "Why I didn't put it there , I've finished now anyway " Gasman : " You're the electrician , didn't you see it ?" Electman: " No I've not been in the garage and I don't actually care where the bond is TBH if it worries you , you do it " Gasman: " Its not MY job" Electman " And I don't care so I'll leave you to sort it out " Classic example of Mr Pedantic poking his nose in and wasting everyone's time . Most gas services are yellow PVC so won't be introducing anything into the building ....I thought the main purpose was to bond internal metalwork to the neutral so everything is the same potential when the PME neutral breaks down .
