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.

    Appoligies terable at email lol. A few years ago a friend had issues with having a slight static shock at differant sites they visited. The hook up Wass tt earth rod as it should but the caravan plug 25 m away was the issue in this issue it partially intermittently lost its earth in the plug socket, it turned out to be loss earth connection at the caravan end. I was referring to this. I am not a fan of loose leads as its open to abuse, I have seen campsite owners using strimmer with metal blades cutting grass around the caravan.
