    get a sparks to do it, surely you have a friend who is a sparks? it'll probably only cost you a drink. We could all spend some time explaining what to do but if you get it wrong and quote us as the ones that advised you, it would be a "Claims Direct" day for sure. It's clear to see you have feed...

    Main Bonding Question

    Very true, it would be helpful if you put notice/ sticker/ label at the points where the earth connection should be to indicate where the connection actually is.

    Bonding

    Sub Mains

    The requirement for protecting cables with an RCD when they are less than 50mm from the surface is for walls only though? I know that I would personally favour an SWA anyday on sub-mains and have a dislike of the use of T&E for this purpose. Also the electricity boards will not accept SWA as a...
