Hi I have had the DNO visit today for a check before updating to PME from TT, they said that I have to earth bond the gas and mains water pipe (although blue plastic before coming into property) in 10mm first to meter board earth block, and consumer unit 25mm to meter board earth block before doing the upgrade, now the question is, can the mains water pipe be earthed at any point in the property, and also do the mains water and gas have to be seperate until meeting at the meter board earth block or can they be linked together early on, and then run as a single 10mm to the meter board earth block, I just thought I would ask as it would be more convenient this way. One last thing, does this have to be done by a qualified electrician under the new legislation or can this be done without qualification.
Many thanks
