    Electric Fire Install - Gas pipe consideration

    Bonding gas and water

    Hi, so I’m on a job currently and there’s no bonding to gas or water! Gas isn’t an issue, as the meter is in the same cupboard and the consumer unit. Water stop tap is on the complete opposite side of the house with no easy route without a fair amount of damage to decoration. Routing the...

    UK Gas Bonding Certification

    New gas boiler install. Previously no gas in dwelling, water is plastic. So no bonding presently. No other work, boiler supply to use existing Electric Heater Circuit. What certification should be used, It's not a new circuit, so not EIC. So just Minor Works?

    MPBC to Gas Supply not required

    What’s your take on this….If the Gas pipe entering a property is plastic then no MPBC required. This seems to contradict this with the gas pipe to the meter is plastic then metallic to the internal

    Defy dgs906 gas electric oven

    Hi, I am trying to figure out if my defy dgs906 gas/electric oven is single or 3 phase. The manual says it can be either or but the L1, L2 and L3 are not bridged so I assume its 3 phase. I am not doing the wiring but need to pull the correct cable before the electrician comes to install as I...
