We visited Vevy in the French part of Switzerland last weekend and while walking from the hotel to the railway station I came across these works for the replacement of an LV distribution cabinet. It doesn't look very Swiss but I guess it is a mixture of new and old. There seems to be several different, separate, earthing tapes. Is this usual?
The number of tapes doesn't matter, the only bit of interest is the area in contact with the soil. However in this case they might just be connecting cable armour etc. to the MET, as they seem rather small and not very deeply buried, so are probably useless as Earth connections! Everything Swiss is not always as tidy as the railway stations and streets! They have many of the same problems as us.
