I thought the kitchen sink needed to be bonded too - is this not the case?

In my laundry room I have a wired in washing machine and tumble
dryer,
connected via a RCD circuit. I also have a radiator, sink and toilet.
I
believe that all the pipes connecting to the sink, toilet and radiator
should be bonded together. This will require me to take the earthing
wire under the floor, so it is a bit of a pain, but obviously want to
get this right.

Can anyone confirm my assumption.

Thanks, Tim


Only rooms containing a shower or bath need supplementary bonding.

Page 26 of the OSG.

There is no specific requirement in BS 7671 to supplementary bond the
following.

kitchen pipes, sinks or draining boards

metal furniture in kitchens

metal pipes and wash hand basins in domestic locations other than bathrooms
