Had N.E.D.L out tonight to have a look at the pme they have said that the earth loop is testing fine at 0.21 ohms. The engineer cannot explain why i am getting a reading of 50v of the pme to cu wire but did say that the earth from the pme to cu needs updating do to being only 4mm cable. If i...

thanks to to all I will get on the phone now and i will let you know what happens gary

I have done some tests today i banged a short length of copper pipe in the ground and connected a 10mm earth cable from it using that as the earth then tested the voltage from that to the cu earth terminal and the meter is showing 50v. The pme when disconnected from the cu is also 50v. I then...

I have checked the earth at the cu there is an earth wire to the electric meter and one to the gas meter and the earth bonding circuit all of the other earth wires are from the house electrical circuits is this right?.

bacon ball ??????????????????????????????????????????????

Hi Mike Hope you had a good weekend. Now then none of the plumbing is shared with the neighbours the plastic waste from the bathroom goes through the wall to a drain outside but the plastic does not touch the water. I will check the earth as you asked tomorrow and let you know the result...

Andrew the bonding is complete as i can check it baqck to the cu adam sorry i do not have a clamp meter

Kev This may be a silly question but do you have a cat or dog as like myself having two dogs they make a lot of dust and this gets pulled into the boiler hence boiler full of dust. This can happen as little as two months after a service the boiler can be full of dust again. I am now...

Hi Mike I have checked all of the circuits one by one and there is no difference on the taps. i tried turning them all off and then on one by one and with each one i turned on check the voltage od the taps. But to go one better than that if i disconnect the earth bonding link from the...

it is the taps because if i sut the water off and disconnect the taps and drain the water from the pipes and then test there is no voltage present. my sink taps and the water inlet for the toilet are doing the same thing but the problem is only in the bathroom. p.s the plug hole on the bath is...

I do not know if there is cross bonding on the boiler and all of the bath waste is plastic and cannot be bonded.

I have had the same problem with by baxi and it was the pilot jet blocked the jet needs to be removed and blown through

no it cannot be static as the shock is constant and not a one off shock Is it possible it may be comming from my boiler?. Between the plug hole and the taps there is 24v.

My bath and waste are both plastic the last section of pipe to the taps and the tap connecters are also plastic. The electrician for his £50 tested the earth bonding the consumer unit's earth and all of the earth wires one by one in the consumer unit. I have checked the rest of the taps in the...

If you put a small amount of water in the bath and place a voltage tester one end in the bath and the other on the tap you get a live reading off of them. Also if you are in the bath and touch the taps you get a shock.

I have 24v live voltage to my bath taps I have checked and tested all of the earth bonding and this is fine i have run a new 10mm earth cable from the consumer unit to the copper pipe connecting the bath taps and the voltage is still present. I have had an electrician in to look at this and...
