[QUOTE="binky, post: 515119, member: 490"] the phrase comes from older versions of earthing guidelines / regs - I forget which book it was in. Likewis the bit about the DNO and applying for permission to export the earthing to an outbuilding, although I doubt that anyone has ever talked to them about a shed supply. BUt it certainly does/did exist. About 4/5 years ago I was installing a solar ground array in the garden of a large house. Another contractor was doing electrical work in the house and as part of their work modifying a detached shed (small barn size) to convert to an office. I pointed out that they should not be 'exporting the earthing,' which they had no knowledge of, so I suggested they go home and read up on it. They returned the next day and said I was right and TT'd the shed. Regs may have been changed on this. If it has been then I am not aware of it, but that doesn't necessarily mean much! :slap [USER=7]@steptoe[/USER] if he's still around, is the resident expert on this. [/QUOTE]
