Ok thanks. I suppose I'd better get one, if only to answer questions.4.5 in green OSG refers to water and space heaters.

I think you will find that the gas installation pipes referred to are the ones within the property, not the supply pipes.Extraneous-conductive-parts are mentioned which includes gas installation pipes. If they're not deemed to be extraneous-conductive-parts then how can they be relevant?
....so GaryMo in summary, your understanding is that in my situation that bonding is not required ?
thanks for your input also with my query
god, i had hoped this would be clear
As the gas pipe is not part of the electrical installation it is deemed extraneous but you know that!OK then, is his pipework an exposed-conductive-part or an extraneous-conductive-part?

Chapter 54 details the requirements.
May I apologise EFLI as 4.5 of the OSG amd 1 does cover bonding of plastic services. For some reason I had been looking at EG to building regs.Ok thanks. I suppose I'd better get one, if only to answer questions.4.5 in green OSG refers to water and space heaters.
No one is arguing about whether it is extraneous, exposed or not.
The regulations categorically state that it should be main bonded - 544.1.2.
Presumably because it is, more likely than not, connected to the water pipes, central heating and boiler - unlike shelves.
