Bonding

[snowhead]

If bonding is needed then there's no reason not to clamp to the T or directly on the stop tap if it's brass.

Cut the metal band in half lengthways and it will probably fit round the copper stub coming out of the concrete

Easiest thing to do is not bond it and box in the small piece of copper so it is not accessible without the use of a tool

Just out of interest. How will your adaption of the securing band affect the BS951 requirements?

There are all sorts of bonding clamps out there these day's, BS951 clamps are typically the clamp of choice, mainly from historical reasons, but certainly not the only one anymore.... lol!!

The Legrand twist on clamps are the best

We are talking about the width, not the length, aren't we?

Well, that's what my misses says.............

Thats if the tee is accessable, the amount behind sinks and visible but not accessable is incredible around these parts, drill a hole into the tee and tap a screw in like laurie mentioned above :teeth_smile:

I have a bone to pick with the advice... I drilled a hole through and gas main yesterday to install a bond..

Noted on cert.. "Comments on install" Funny smell of gas.. Its ok though didnt get call back to the job

Did you solder the screw for a good contact?
