Main bonding installation: questions and answers
Does every metal pipe need the same bonding treatment?
No. The installation and incoming services need assessment to establish what requires main protective bonding and where the connection should be made.
Does every metal pipe automatically need main bonding?
The installation and incoming services need assessment. Bonding requirements depend on their electrical characteristics, rather than appearance alone.
What affects the quotation for main bonding installation?
Access, conductor routes, the supply arrangement and verification work affect the quotation. A quotation should confirm the agreed investigation, repair and testing before work is arranged.
