Hi, About to move into a house with an earth rod as the only earth point (and that looks bad!)
Planning to replace it with a few earth rods with proper protective covers and at least 10mm cables back to the consumer unit, units itself seems to be non-RCD with wire fuses so I plan to replace (or have replaced) with MCB'a and perhaps 30ma overall RCD switch for all circuits.
Does that sound a little safer or am I missing something? Would the elec company `check` the earth once it is fitted?
Ta.
