1.2kohm from stop tap to met although fed by copper pipe and then plastic pipe.

As above a 1 meter section of plastic pipe joins onto the lead watermain under the floor,whilst the gas supply

pipe passes through a brick wall and awaits the gas meter to be fitted.My thoughts are that the gas pipe through

the wall is giving the low reading,but could the water in the plastic also be contributing since it connects to the lead?

Gas and water pipes are glanded into the boiler,which is not electrically connected atm.I have main bonded gas

and water,although in theory the water does not need bonding.Thanks for any advice.

  • "although in theory the water does not need bonding."

    Why not - if it is lead?

  • Geoff,thought if it could not be touched by the customer in normal circumstances, being 1metre below floor level and the lead being 300mm long,it would not need bonding.

  • Ok.
