I'm currently in my MIL's house and saw she has an earth connection bolted to the underneath fin of the radiator in the bathroom which goes to the copper feed pipe. Why does this need to be done?
I'm probably being stupid but i can't figure out what it's actually doing since the rad is metal and it's already connected to the pipe by virtue of it being plumbed in, and the pipe goes to the rest of the system which is bonded in 10mm to the mains already.
Why does this need to be done if the system is already earthed elsewhere?
