bonding on gas/water

mcm · Jan 20, 2011

can anyone give some advice regarding main gas/water bonding on flats.

asked to do a job at some flats all done now filling forms out, had to change landlords mains board due to no rcd. there is 6 flats and they all have their own meter outside down the opposite side of the building. when i fill in the supplementary bonding box should i just put n/a for the new boards form.

thanks

If you have fitted a 17th edition board and the gas and water are both bonded to the MET with 10mm there is no need for supplementary bonding so IMO n/a on the schedule would be ok.

Reg 701.415.2 if you want to look.

if there is supp bonding in place then tick the box
if there is not then you should fit it unless the following conditions are met:

all circuits within the location are protected by rcd
disconnection times can be met
main bonding is verified.

shouldnt the gas meters be bonded from each flat to there own meter outside. changed the board to rcbo's but all the meters are for the flats so does it have to be bonded at the mains incoming for all the flats, or as i asked above.

thanks

A bit confused...you are asking about main bonding but filling in the supplementary bonding box??........
Each flats services should be separately main bonded at the point of entry to the flat....
