Here is the scenario.
EICR has been done on a flat.
The bathroom doesn't have its lighting circuit protected by RCD. Other circuits in the flat are RCD protected. There is supplementary bonding in place in the bathroom with good continuity between metal pipes and from metal pipes to earth. However, the main water and gas bonds are not in place as both supplies are plastic. Electrician has failed the report (C2) saying that RCD protection is required in the bathroom. Is this correct, even though main bonding isn't required in the first place? I mean, does supplementary bonding rely on main bonding being in place, even on a plastic supply? I don't want to have to pay for RCD protection and/or main bonding if it's not required.
Any advice appreciated
