so lets say you got just within 200....Yes you have missed something. It is an existing TT system of which I was upgrading the rod as it was giving 125 ohms, which technically satisfies the BGB, but it reality is a bit rubbish. The 0.45 is the resistance of my bonded pipework (underground gas and water pipes) when tested without the earth stake (new or old) connected, not the service head. As I know we shouldn't rely on bonding for our earth path I set about replacing the rod, which got it down to 44.
I was joking about peeling back the plastic off my incoming cable and wrapping the earth wire around the armour.
would you be satisfied with this...?
as far as BS7671 is concerned its good....
but its time to ask yourself what you truely believe....
