As you will be aware from my previous posts, I am checking existing aspects of my Electrical Cabling ready for inspection before fitting a new CU. I can find all the Bonding points to the Water & Gas services entering the building but I wanted to check one thing.

The water is bonded just above the Stop-Tap under my kitchen sink but there doesn't seem to be a similar bond on the Hot Water side, is this OK ? My Hot Water is supplied from a separate Multi-Point Boiler, NOT a Central Heating Boiler/Combi.

Thanks
 
10mm Main Bondimg is required for all metallic services that enter your house, such as water main, gas main, oil line.

The hot water pipes are not a metallic service entering your house. They are sourced (indirectly) from the cold water supply (already bonded) and the gas supply (already bonded.

So hot water pipes do not need to be main-bonded.
