I'm having central heating installed, 75% done.

Plumber tells me I need an earth wire from the consumer unit to the
outside
gas meter.

This is quite difficult to achieve without leaving lots of earth cable
visible. Are there alternative options for me? Also, as the incoming gas
supply is plastic I can't see the point.

Is your plumber an electrician? Why is he even getting involved in
this?


He isn't. He's not getting involved as he's put it on to me. I was going to
route the cable then have an electrician do the connections but that's not
my question.
