Have you installed a rod or applied for a PME yet?

Or anything to help improve the safety of the installation?

Well thats worth a response as I said the more information the better ie you are in an urban area fine but we still need to know as I said it was not a pop thats just not my style but remember this is not about you , you have to remember that there are guys who a learning just like me who has the humility to admit this and these guys need to learn how to discipline themselves and how to gather and interpit information so I cannot help feeling that if you had supplied all the info it would have not been such a cryptic hunt plus I think the Inspector Morse analigie went over your head because if this was a police case well Miludd me thinks the wrong man went to jail for evidence with held so I rest my case. Mind it makes you wonder why you asked the question in the first place

Just wondering, because if you were NW based I was going to say you won'y have any probs in getting the DNO out and them more than likely sorting it.

Surely it's been a regulation for over 40years that water and gas pipes cannot be relied on a protective earthing, and all houses with TT systems should be fitted with main R.C.D'S and a copper earth rod installed.
