[QUOTE="Nightjar, post: 528546, member: 1414"] Jaros, MB, You will find most homes have the earthing rod near a tap. Some homes you will find the earth wires actually clamped to the galvanised or copper water pipes. Jaros as you mention the ground is usually damp which improves the earth. The RCD should still function with poor earthing but the chance of electrocution and fire is increased. Push your RCD button MB, missing a bit of the cricket is a better alternative. Offer a beer or three to one of the mining company electricians, feel sure they would gladly check out your system? [/QUOTE]
