    Replacing mcbs

    Supp bonding

    Hi Quick question. I believe that the regs regarding supp bonding in a kitchen were changed as they found it to be more dangerous when supp bonded. Can anyone explain why this is? And why doesn't it make a bathroom installtion dangerous? Many thanks.

    hager RCBO

    Hi I have personally never seen an rcbo rated over 40A (I stand to be corrected). It might be a case of fitting an external rcd if you have no luck of getting one.

    nestor - thanks for the advice but... It is a cricket score board which has pulley things for the score. The paint is just to renew the look of the hut as it is looking very faded etc. Thanks

    earthing boiler

    It is not a reg but it is regarded as good practice to bond kitchen sinks and boiler pipes - so I am informed. We for one supplementary bond all our sinks. Maybe when the 17th edition comes out things will change?

    Main Earth connection

    Is the clamp on the pipe a standard electricians clamp? Is the pipe lead? If so I have found that if you ring them up and say that there is an electrical clamp on the lead pipe they are out sharpish!

    FEARS/PHOBIAS

    Spiders for me - don't mind small ones but don't like big ones. Don't like the way they move. I enjoy watching documentaries on them though. And I don't mind if one is in the same room as me - as long as its not next to me or on me. Its strange where I grew up there were loads of little jumping...
