Hi,
I moved into a privately rented house 7 weeks ago and was told by the landlord that an earth needed to be put on the roof and someone whould call the folllowing week to fit it.
There is a small metal drum in the porch of the house which I think is what needs fitting to the roof. I have no clue how important this is or what it's actually for so I phoned my father in law to see if he could enlighten me. He said it's either a conductor for lightning or maybe to connect to the gas meter but carn't be that as it should already be bonded...?
Ive searched 'gas meter bonding' on the internet and found that there should be a green & yellow wire attatched somewhere to one of the pipes on the meter...I can't find one on mine! Im worried now about how safe my house is!!!
