[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 518518, member: 6969"] You might care when the next gas safe engineer shuts off your gas because HE is not happy with where it is even though the electrician is happy. One I was thinking of, the pipe from the gas meter ran up the wall and into the loft of a bungalow. I bonded the pipe just inside the loft space as close to the entry point as I could reach. Almost a year later I got called back because the gas man had failed it and was threatening to shut the gas off, so I had to do the ludicrous thing of exit the earth cable from the loft, cable tie it to the gas pipe, and connect it with a clamp inside the gas meter box. I WISH we had a common set of regs to work to for this. [/QUOTE]
