Main Bonding Conductor routing method

[Noob2013]

Further to my recent post regarding main bonding.

When bonding the incoming water at the other side of the property, what is acceptable when running the cable down a wall due to be plastered?

Due to concrete floor and a terraced house, the only way is to run the cable up underneath floorboards and back down the wall.

Can it be clipped to the wall and skimmed over or does the cable require capping or oval conduit?

Seems a lot of hassle doing an extra chase down and along the way.

Cheers

Personally I would just cap it the same as any other cable, assuming it is bare block work.
If it's an existing, already plastered wall then yes you'll have to chase it in, I'd put it in oval conduit I this case

What about safe zones?

Don't think they would be happy with that in the newly refurbished kicthen lol

if it's on an external wall, you could run it outside in some bkack 20mm pvc conduit, then back in near the water stop tap.

If being chased in it will still need to be run in prescribed zone, not just down middle of wall with no accesory to create you a zone.

Run it into a flush box with a blank plate...in a safe zone in line with an accessory then.

Yes; I have done similar in the past and not just for bonding cables. Anyone who takes off the blank plate can see where the cables are coming from and going to.
