Bonding Metal Stud work in new build

Grandfortune88
HI all.


Company I am doing work for have asked me to bond the metal stud work from 1 socket on the wall with 4mm bond to an upright, apparently, some got a shock pff a door handle, a cable was screwed on the live only and livened up the whole wall, I assumed it was RCD protected.


Any better Ideas?

Cheers

    Can you not Bond back to the MET? I am not an electrician but I do have to Bond my installations, and we Bond with 4mm back to the MET.


    Assuming that the ;'wall socket' is 2.5mm Twin & Earth, 4mm would give no more protection the a single solid strand of the Earth wire out of a bit of 2.5mm Twin & Earth.


    And was it an 'electrical shock', could you measure it, or was it just a 'touch current'?
