I'm having central heating installed, 75% done.
Plumber tells me I need an earth wire from the consumer unit to the

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?
Any CORGI plumber worth his salt would check for main equipotential bonding
on the gas and advise the customer that it needs doing if it is not done.

Mine ran a new pipe back to the meter cupboard. No problem so far,
except he removed the earth clamp attached to the old pipe, and left
it dangling.
