Hi all, think this might be a stupid question but, I have just used plastic and speedfit to a new radiator am i right in thinking no bonding is needed to that rad ?
Thanks for any replies and looking.
 
Old 16th edition regs made you still earth bond towel rail and cross bond over plastic fittings if used.
If you have a fuse board with a 30mA rcd trip on lighting circuit you don't need to bond.
 
the rad will need its own bonding strap/rad clamp
