NCS or AT Risk

[ipk300]

Hi,

Please could someone tell me if this gas pipe running from the outside gas meter is considered AT Risk or NCS, and what should be done about it?

Thank you

Probably ncs. Not sleeved entering the building. Lots of other things to worry about in this world, but that is not one of them..I would get the bonding sorted.

Depends if the wall has a cavity, if it has then at risk, if its a solid wall ncs.

Thanks for taking the time to reply. Very much appreciated.

Thought there wasn't such a thing as NCS any more?

There is still the NCS category but its been removed from the giusp 7 because NCS are not unsafe, you can still note and report whatever NCS you find .

It is only AR if the missing sleeve is direct from inside the meter box, otherwise solid or cavity = NCS
Unless I am mistaken

I would still list it as NCS on the cp12 just to cover yourself

That is referring to being ran within the wall, as opposed to through the wall in the shortest route. Although probably badly worded.

IMO

Just shows how easy it is to misinterpret wording!

Next question could be how big is the hole in the wall before the gas pipe is just running through an opening rather then an unsleeved hole!

What do you think is wrong with it?

Looks like it was fitted by an electrician
