Industrial and supplementary bonding

[Jako13!]

Hi guys I’m still working towards my NVQ level 3 in electrical maintenance within an industrial environment pumps and process equipment. I know this question may be a bit vague but I’m confused about supplementary bonding in my working environment.

Here are a few of the things I’m confused about.

A lot of equipment is outside and is supplementary bonded. (If you supplementary bonding bind do you need rcds)

Would you supplementary bond to hand railing adjacent to electrical panels?

Thank you guys it’s hard getting answers from some of the sparks at work as they all say different things.

If it's coming from inside the building, it should already be bonded to the main earth....time to test. If it's not, it needs it.
