OSG 7.3.2 cables in walls and partitions

hertzal123
In the above,item d states the cables can be protected by earthed steel conduit or,

Item e then states :mechanical protection sufficient to prevent penetration of nails,etc,

but no mention of earthing..

I have a situation with a short 200mm horizontal run outside the zones.

I could slide a lenght of earthed conduit over,but then the earth connection would be plastered

over and could not be inspected.

If I treat the conduit as mechanical protection,it would not need earthing?

Wondered what others would do.
