Hi all.
I have a gas pipe to bond. The client isn't keen to have the cable run internally, so I plan to run it around the outside of the building. In conduit is one option, but will look at bit ugly IMO, so am considering clipping the 10mm direct. Anyway, it's thrown up a couple of basic questions that I'm not 100% sure of the answers to, and I'd appreciate your help with.
1 - Does a bonding conductor need to be sheathed green/yellow right along it's length? I believe not, and can't find an reg to suggest it does.
2 - Does a bonding conductor need a sheath at all? Again, I believe not, but maybe you know better.
I'd like to run a 10mm black single on the exterior and just sleeve green/yellow internally where it connects to the clamp and into the MET. Can anyone see any problem with this?
