Gas pipe insert

lyledunn
This extract from ER G12/issue 4 Amd 12015. Is it common practice for a gas pipe to have a insulated insert? Certainly not here.

5.2 Earthing terminal

5.2.1 Provision of earth terminal

PME earth terminals can be offered to consumers unless there are reasonable grounds to believe either:

- their earthing installation is not designed to BS 7671.

- or

- the type of installation is not suitable for PME. (See Section 6 for examples where it may not be possible to provide a PME earth terminal).

Where a metallic gas service is provided to a consumer’s premises with a PME earth terminal, an insulated insert should be fitted in the gas service.

    Our previous house, built 1973, had a steel gas pipe up into the garage to the meter, but no plastic insert was fitted. (TNS electricity)

    et my parent's bungalow built I guess in the late 1960s did have a plastic insert (the meter there being in a kitchen broom cupboard.) Not sure about their electricity supply, but no PME label on cutout.
