I've recently been getting a shock between my sink and my dish washer, so i called out a spark to have a look. When the spark turned up last week he said that it was just a fault on the single socket that the dish washer was plugged into, he then told me to unplug the dish washer and not use it until he came back as he had no single socket on the van to change it with. So naturally i haven't, but having read about a bit on the net and noticing a post further down the page i'm beginning to wonder if thats all that could be the matter?
He says that he did a test on the backside of the socket and the readings came out ok, so i'm inclined to believe him.
Edit: I also said to him that i thought he'd already done the main bonding when my kitchen was fitted but his reply was that the kitchen sink did not need to be bonded anymore and that as seen as the stop cock was not underneath the kitchen sink, and the pipes in the house were plastic then there would be no earth bond at the sink at all. Is this also right? Because as you can understand i am not happy considering the work has not long been completed.
