Do I need to earth bond this airing cupboard pipe?

[Foxtrot Oscar]

Hi guys

I've recently taken a 22mm cooper pipe down from my cold water cistern to the shower pump in the airing cupboard.

My question is simply - do I need to earth bond the exposed vertical pipe you can see in this picture?

The other (painted) pipes are already bonded as you can see.

Many thanks.

might as well do it, just link into the other bonding. on the cold feed to the hot cylinder it looks like the bonding clamp is on painted pipe, goode idea to redo that as well just scrape the paint off under the clamp.

Earth bonding and push-fit fittings!
Not a good idea - waste of time!
Is push-fit all over the house?

 

[Armo74]

isn,t supplementary bonding required over the pushfit fittings?

You broke the continuity when you put plastic push fits on system
