Bonding and ufh

[m4tty]

Hi,

if installing ufh does the bonding need to be upgraded?

Thanks

bonding needs to be adequate befor any electrical work except like for like replacement, or so i am lead to belive

No

is the straight answer to the question as put. If the installation is TN and already has 10mm bonds to gas and water, why upgrade?

If, however, the installation has inadequate bonding then this needs to be rectified as part of any works.

So to get this right in my head. Any work where bonding and earthing is not up to current regs needs upgrading apart from like for like changes. Thanks

If spurring off the upstairs ring to rcd fcu for the ufh. It's a minor works cert? As no new circuit has been taken from the board. Is that right? Cheers

SHouldn't the UFH be on its own radial?
