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.
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.
It's probably not. Again, this is discussed on Page 20 of the DTI guidance I linked to in my previous post, and there is special consideration in G12/4 for street furniture on PME.
