Hi Guys,
Just after a bit of advice on this one,
I am just about to have my C/U replaced, the sparks came round for a quick look about, he said I'll need to get the earth sorted out by running 2 10mm earth cables , 1 from gas main and 2 from stop cock in the kitchen .
What the problem is , is that a few months back my water main burst under the foundation so i cut into it and replaced a section with mdpe pipe which runs to the internal stop cock.
Now when I earth it what would be the best solution,
either clamp it at the stop cock which means the route back to earth would be broken by the mdpe section.
Or dig out the front of my garden again and locate the join in the copper/mdpe main and clamp it to the copper beneath the ground and feed it through an air brick.
Or both?
Thank you for any advice
Steve
