Who should decide how the cabinet is bonded or earthed as part of the finished installation?
The final earthing and bonding arrangement should be determined by a competent person with reference to the electrical installation, connected equipment and applicable regulations or standards.
The cabinet's earth stud and front-door bonding strap do not define the complete protective-earthing arrangement for every installation.
Where there is uncertainty, appropriate electrical advice should be obtained.
