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.

    In what way is this suggestion different from hundreds of items of street furniture? I do not see that it is, and they appear to present no danger at all. Is this just a throwback, never corrected, in the ESQCR and BS7671. Typical Earth resistance for lamp posts and phone masts is still 100 ohms or so, in my view very dangerous with a PME supply.
