Need Some Advice / Guidance

I can not see any earthing conductors at the mains intake.There is nothing wrong with using the trunking and conduit as the C.P.C. but I can't see how this is earthed back to the consumer unit.

this is where the stupid sparks came in

they removed a metal board which the conduit was connect to it, and shoved a plastic crappy one in but not redoing / terminating the earth so atm its not earthed as i would of thought they would have done it when they changed the consumer

Understand. But AB is saying there should still be a main earth terminal....the original metal board should have been connected to it.

yea there is on the side of the main i guess you would call it fuse holder (main incoming supply)

tncs supply if it matters

Just couldn't see it in the photo and I thought it was the case regarding a metal conduit from the old metal C.U. to the trunking being removed and replaced with flexible PVC conduit removing the earth continuity.

Yep another thing for me to sort / fix

No this is down to the electricians who installed the C.U.

Well you would think will give me a bit of ammo anyway

I'd call that a BAZOOKA.......not installing a main earth

 

[Toneyz]

Have you got any photo's where the original C. U. is shown with metal conduit between?

 

[Corbs]

No sorry but it was the same connection as the sockets

Coupling and brass bush

Only know this due to the coupling still being on the end of the conduit
