the local electrical board have installed a new electric service meter and RCDs but no earth connection, do i need to drive in a earth stake

is this an existing building or a building site?
 

Are you a spark?

Even though TN-C-S is not prohibited on a construction site the supply company will rarely connect you to their means of earthing so yes you need an electrode.

are you suggesting that the supply company installed the supply, the meter and a fuseboard too ?

Supply the  meter and two RCDs not a suggestion  a fact,

that sounds unusual based on what I come across.

around here, on new builds , the supplier won’t connect a new supply unless a spark has a builders board ready, complete with a rod and said spark provides an EIC with dead tests
