earthing main gas & water pipes

[FootSore]

JohnD Thanks again.

The bath panel is screwed to a wood frame so this complies.
The pump unit is fed direct from the CU on its own cable underneath the floor so no choice for the earth terminal to be hidden under the bath. In fact from the point it leaves the CU it is not visible anywhere.

I know that pipes are all soldered as I wouldn't let them use plastic fittings as I have had 2 fail on me. 1 whilst on holiday - awful mess. And I checked before the floors went down.

I'm good to go.

Thank you.

Not sure on forum rules so if this is wrong someone let me know. I got them from QVS (not QVC shopping channel) although any electrical wholesalers will do. I generally find the nearest one thats open is always the best one!! Especially if its getting near lunch time on a Saturday.

If (and only if) your light fitting is Class II, then you can choose to omit the supp bonding to the fitting. However (number 1), if you change the fitting in the future to Class I, then you will need it.

However (number 2), if, as John says, your lighting has no cpc, then you really should have the circuit updated.

Footsore - where did you buy your cable?

Just type in the box the number of metres you require. 20 metres is £25.29.

Hi Footsore

I'm always curious to know in what way push-fit fittings have failed.

Do you remember what brand they were, and, if known, the reason for them leaking?
