SteveF1 gather you have not done the 17th yet as there is No such thing as EEBADS any more its ADS

Your assumption that I have not done the 17th Edition is incorrect. Yes you are correct that EEBADS has been replaced by ADoS as an acronym buit there will always be EEBADS. Although it is not refered to in the 17 Edition it does not mean "ther is no such thing any more" Equipotential bonding will always be required where protection against electric shock (indirect contact) is provided by Earthed Equipotential Bonding and Automatic Disconnection of Supply (EEBADS).It will also be used where disconnection times for circuits cannot be met, and where circuits with differing disconnection times come from a common distribution board.
I think you missed the point of the original post.
Hiya guys will an RCD or RCBO work if there is no earth in the house?A fellow worker said to me today that there is no need for an earth in a house if the board has an RCD or is controlled by RCBOs as they work on the inbalance of the live and neutral.
