Hi
I have just moved a bathroom into a smaller room and have just about finished but I want to earth bond the pluming etc, there is no electric shower in the bathroom. The shower is fixed from the wall above the bath and it is fed from a deck mounted diverter and controlled via the hot and cold bath taps. All supply piping comes up from the kitchen underneath the new bathroom. The bath is a jaccuzi and the pump and is supplied via an isolation switch outside the bathroom. Now i was going to earth bond the pipes together and run a new earth wire back the consumer unit where the downstairs bonding runs but i have read that bathroom earth bonding must be run back the the earth point of the supply to any electrical equipment in a bathroom so my question is do I bond the pipes in the bathroom and run the earth to the earth of the supply box outside the bathroom ?
Many thanks for any help recieved
Regards Chris
