I've recently added main equipotential bonding at home by connecting the gas and water pipes to the TN-S earth. Following recent posts and re-reading the wiki I think I've made a mistake:
The TN-S earth, mains water pipe and consumer unit are bonded together on a block by the service fuse. See photo:
A 10mm earth wire then runs up a pipe with the tails to the earth bar in the consumer unit. I've connected the gas pipe to the earth bar in the consumer unit, instead of running it back to the earth block by the service fuse (which I guess is my MET). This photo shows the meters next to the consumer unit:
So my question is: Is it acceptable to have the gas pipe connected to the consumer unit, which is then connected to the MET?
Thanks in advance.
