The dreaded bonding again

Kelly Marie Angel

Sorry for this but my boiler recently had her annual service all was well except they said I don't have any bonding in place except I think I do the gas main is bonded in the meter cupboard and the radiators and hot and cold water feeds are all bonded in the bathroom upstairs. All pipework is copper throughout the plumbing never been altered in 40 years except for a new boiler oh and removal of the water tanks. So can I be confident the bonding upstairs is good enough?

    The gas bond is in the house right where the gas pipe comes out from under the cement floor its as close to the meter as possible doing it any closer would mean a lot of mess and of course cost. The water bonds are all upstairs in the bathroom they were put there before the boiler was installed they were done when the SEB as it was then installed the shower. Finally I know its TNS because it looks like TNS as I say the earth is clamped to the lead supply cable sheath  although there is also some unintentional earthing via the water and gas pipes  this is the intended way.
