That's obviously what we all initially assume but, as I said, I've started to wonder, both because of the strange wording ("no approved...") and because what he wrote is, in several respects, not what I would expect him to have written if he were talking about a high impedance (connected) TN-S earth.This is why I think he is describing it as "no approved earth connection"....because there is one, but it is not to standard, possibly because of an earth clamp. The pictures will tell, anyway.
Pictures will hopefully help us - provided the guy did not change things. Keeping the sheath as an earth and adding RCD(s) (flameport's first and preferred option) is not even mentioned in the note (which talks of only TT and TN-C-S), even though it seems that the guy mentioned (presumably verbally) "an RCD" to the OP. It's all rather odd.
Kind Regards, John
