Doing a rewire at the moment on a house that has old conduit down the walls to each socket/light switch, and need to replace the back boxes. Are there any clamps you can use to earth the conduit? If not,it could turn into a bit of a nightmare? Anybody got any tips? I don't want to rip the conduit out as it will wreck all the deco.
 
Yes, I'm only talking about a hole made by a probe similar to the point on a dart.
Here's another thought on the subject of capping, if it was heavy duty i.e. 3mm thick, it would be considered by B.S. 7671 sufficient to prevent nails etc going through it, (in the same way conduit is considered), I think to solve this debate people should either fit heavy duty (if it's thick enough and clients/consultants/designers want it earthed/bonded), or don't fit any.
