Equipotential bonding inspection and certificate
The inspection checks whether accessible conductive parts and utility pipes are correctly connected to the equipotential bonding system. A certificate records the results of the on-site examination and measurements.
When is it needed?
A bonding certificate is typically requested in connection with a new gas connection, a gas meter or appliance replacement, or the alteration of the mechanical services. Before ordering, it is worth sending me the exact requirement received from the supplier or the contractor.
- Visual examination of joints and connections
- Instrument testing of protective conductor continuity
- Documentation of the results
- A clear repair proposal if anything is found lacking
What should you prepare?
Please make sure that the equipment and pipework to be inspected and the electrical distribution board are accessible. If an earlier certificate or a supplier requirement is available, it speeds up the process considerably.
