bonding for landlord

[glasgospark]

carried out eicr for landlord
no main bonding to gas and water mains
c2 coded
told them we need to run 10mm from main board to each area

the gas is pretty much non accessible , is there anything within the regs or guidance notes that states what to do in tyhe case i.e bond at different point etc ?

doesnt i just make you bang your head against wall , here one security company 's electric gates in sister in laws started tripping RCD so i located the fault to a NE insulation fault the gate guys came out and moved it to the unprotected side of the dist board makes my blood boil

I had something simlar to this only that customer didn't want any floor boards lifting so bonded to gas pipe in garage loft space feeding boiler in kitchen only accessable place near to cu. Used this job for assesment guy from elecsa said ok but what if gas pipe was removed at later date if house layout changed so ended up routing cable through garage loft into bedroom up through main loft down side of house in conduit and bonded in gas meter cupboard

So what code have you give the "rings" then?

C2 , going on the basis its rings with broken ring continuity

That’s an assumption not proven fact.

All points to being correct first instance it's a house with 3 cct's for sockets and it's labeled ring, so a pretty decent assumption TONY

Never assume any thing, as all it does is makes a --- out of U and ME
