I was in a mates garage the other day and noticed his nice new hagar consumer unit.The main earth from the earth block to the C.U. was in 16mm and the M.E.B. to the gas and water was in 10mm. OK so far but here is my querie the supply earth was T.N.S. with just a few strands, at a guess no more in total than a C.S.A. of say 4 or 6 mm going from the outer sheeve of the incomming supply cable to the earth block,therefor why use 16mm for the main earth,or should 16mm be somehow attached to the main sheeve of the supply. Please lets have your thought I am very interested. Many thanks
