Right....here is what I propose to do. Any earth clamps that were removed (3) are going to be extended to where they can be re-attached to copper pipe. The whole supplementary/ main bonding can be addressed by a proper spark. This is giving me a headache! Thanks for all the comments though. All I need now is a few regulations to cover, painting, decorating, plumbing and joinery and I can put my feet up.
