[QUOTE="Evans Electric, post: 499447, member: 1408"] I'd guess he inherited it from an even older spark . If theres an easier way then I'm for it TBH . Blokes get some strange ideas in our trade . We did a boiler room with lots of pumps , instead of flexible conduit with the old bare earth wire spiralled round the outside ..we used the more modern Kopex , PVC covered with an earth inside . The consultant turned up and said where,s the earth wires ...Inside we said ..... but we can't see them says he . We ended up having to have traffolite labels made & fitted , that read " Earth wire inside " Or words to that effect . The same man made us fit bonding jumpers to that flimsy , Baco foil covering on the pipe insulation ...his words were , [I]" It conducts electricity so it must be earthed " [/I] [/QUOTE]
