Bathroom Wiring

[Naz1977]

Hi Guys

Quick check to make sure I am understanding the onsite guide correctly.

I am running new supply to the bathroom and also replacing the CU with dual RCD ( it is a TT system). So all circuits in the house will be protected by RCD. Does this mean I don't need to worry about the sup. boding in the bathroom? Or am I better off run it anyway since I am redoing the whole bathroom and everything ( plumbing, electrics) is being run new.

Thanks in advance.

As all of the work you describe (new CU, bathroom elecgtrics) is NOTIFIABLE, you should know the answer to that basic question without having to ask on a DIY help forum.

As well as RCD protection, there are other requirments to confirm before you can decide that supplementary bonding is not required.
Try looking in BS7671. Its all in there.

TTC - he isn't listening.

He is not interested in any advice which does not fit with what he decided he was going to do before he came here, and he is one of those people who thinks that if he asks about the things he realises he needs to know, as and when they crop up, he will magically become competent and know everything he needs to know.

You would be better off having the work done by someone who actually knows what they are doing.
