Caravan hook up
Former Community Member
Hi I am fitting a caravan hook up on the wall next to the dno incomer box. No wires exposed. Do I still require an earth rod. The earth bond will be prob 1 ft long inside so not exposed. I know if I fit the box away using swa then yes earth rod would be used.
Andy I thank you for your response. I actually now am thinking of looking at the new devices on the market used for EV chargers called a pen fault unit. Ones that measure and detect earth issues which in the event of a loose they isolate the supply to a charging point. I think this would work well as its designed for issues like this. I see that an amendment was issued with regards earthrod in bs7671. Also newer EV chargers are coming out with built in 18th edition with pen.
