For an all-copper system like mine, Whitfield shows the water pipe

on the *house* side of the stopcock (Fig 5.13). I'm assuming that's
correct but can't understand the logic behind it - before I unpack my
earth clamps please can someone explain?!


I must be Irish - to be sure to be sure - but always bond both sides of
the stopcock and gas meter/cutoff valve. Clamps ain't expensive.
