544.1.2 The main protective bonding connection to any extraneous-conductive-part such as gas, water or

other metallic pipework or service shall be made as near as practicable to the point of entry of that part into the

premises. Where there is a meter, isolation point or union, the connection shall be made to the consumer’s hard metal

pipework and before any branch pipework. Where practicable the connection shall be made within 600 mm of the

meter outlet union or at the point of entry to the building if the meter is external.
