Circulating currents

Kelly Marie Angel
So I apologise if I'm being thick here but where I live most property's are TN S  the loop impedance here is 0.238 ohms at the intake  a couple of property's have neutral earth bonds my ex girlfriends place  has one  and the shop below it probably does although I can't be sure so now to the point is it likely il get currents in my earthing cables from from the neutral earth bonds putting current thru the water pipes which are all lead  then it going from the pipes back onto the outer sheath of the supply cable. This seems unlikely to he but ide appreciate your professional opinions
