Morning,
During one of my investigations behind the kitchen sink, I found that the
earth bonding wires to the water pipe were detached (I blame the plumber).
I checked all bonding points and found that:
Earth bonding to gas, water and central heating is done with 10mm^s.
This connects to a block under the CU, and then via 10mm^2 to the earth
bar in the CU.
The supply (TN-C-S, I think) uses 10mm^2 earth and 16mm^2 L&N.
I was expecting these to all be one size fatter (16mm^2 earth and 25mm^2 L&N),
but maybe this is enough for a supply fused at 60A.
Does this sound compliant with current regs?
Does it say on the suppliers fuse that it is a 60 amp fuse or a 100
amp fuse?
Is it a re-wirable by any chance?
