    Running main bonding outside

    Running main bonding outside

    Had a CU upgrade just over a year ago but the electrician didn't upgrade the main bonding to the water from 6mm to 10mm.

    Hi, I hope someone will be kind enough to assist me. I'm wiring my garage conversion(extending an existing radial). The walls are skinned with 70mm studwork and 50mm rigid insulation leaving clearance of 20mm. The builder wants to maintain an air gap at the rear reducing clearance further. I...
