Fixing TT earthing problems and gas bonding for an EV charger

[StuB]

Here's a better photo of the gas bonding I've found.

Hopefully that's acceptable for Octopus.

These companies cannot make up their own wiring regulations.

Bonding conductors shall not be looped between services unless installed as a single continuous conductor.

Well apparently not....

(This is something that interests me because I also have incoming gas and water that are near each other but remote from the CU. Do we know where this "continuous conductor" idea comes from?)

You can always connect the gas with the continuous conductor and loop to the water.

People have been talking about that alleged requirement for as long as I can remember, but I don't know where it came from.

I thought that it had probably been made up by some old version of the OSG, but I can't find it in either my 17th ed. copy nor the current one, and it's certainly not in BS7671 (and I don't think ever has been). Is the infamous NICEIC (in one of its guises) perhaps responsible for having invented this one?

In any event, as EFLI has pointed out, if you're really concerned you could have a 'continuous conductor' connecting two or more remote extraneous-c-ps to the MET.
