Hi, my rising main enters the house through a solid concrete floor near an internal wall in the kitchen. It has a black plastic compression type coupler near the floor which joins it to a length of blue plastic pipe about 25cm long onto which the tap connects which then connects to all the internal plumbing (on copper pipe). Wondered if anyone could help with a couple of questions I have: 1) can the copper pipe above the main tap be used for earth bonding given that the blue pipe it connects to described above appears to be plastic (i.e. no continuity to earth?), and 2) does the blue bit belong to the water board or can it be replaced/extended given that it is in the most inconvenient position possible bearing in mind the way the missus wants the kitchen to be... Sorry if these are dumb questions, by way of reciprocity I can tell you just about anything about data networking if you have any questions (unlikely :o)
