Earth bonding on a kitchen sink

[Paul Cockhill]

Hi

Can anyone tell me if earth bonding is required on a metal kitchen sink. On the instructions it says it should be earth bonded, so I was going to bond it to one of the copper pipes with an earth tag. However there is not a lug on the sink to bond onto which I thought was strange.

Any advice gratefully received

thanks

Paul

It depends on how the house is wired, you don't need to under 17th edition regs but do if the circuits are not RCD protected.
