Then we get to the question of given the scenero of a building internally piped fully in copper, but where the incomming cold water service is plastic, can the point be made that it might be sound engineering practice for a bond still to be made at the copper immediatly after the stop tap, in order that the internal pipework is effectivly earthed, even though it doesn't require to be bonded. I'm sure its been brought up here before in terms of faults to the pipework. But what about where you have a bathroom, and the pipework is extranous from the POV of the bathroom, and you wish to ommit suppliementy bonding, there is a requirement that such pipework is effectly connected to the buildings MET...
