    Just been reading the previous post about clean earths.

    How do you get/make a clean earth? (apart from doing away with CFCs and litter louts)

    run 2 earth cables so that the earth leakage does not go higher than 10mA you dont need one unless you have a fair amount of computer and electronic equipment#

    Are both earths connected to the sockets that have the computer equipment on, or just the clean one ?

    Where is the clean one connected to at the origin? The CU, or all the way back to the earth incomer by the meter?

    they go to seperate terminals at the earth block in the cu, im sure you know in a radial, the wire goes from 1, loops to next, to next and so on, well when you get to last socket, the earth reterns to cu, so you have a radial with a ringed earth...

    Thanks for the info SS. Is it really worth doing that sort of thing for a home system setup or just a FWOT?
