From our initial meeting and throughout his attendance Andy presented an utterly friendly and engaging manner. Equally, his professionalism shone through his steadfast approach to the work in hand concerning the re-wiring of my home. Communication was consistently clear and helpful eg keeping me informed of developments and ongoing progress, very re-assuring indeed.
Special thanks, also, to Steve's earnest contribution: not only for his positive and courteous attitude but also the due diligence and care consistently applied in terms of cleaning up after each stage in the whole process. Much admired and greatly appreciated.
Overall, I am very pleased with the entire experience and, as such, would happily recommend TM Hughes and Son to others.

Andy made re wiring our entire home easy and completed it within a quick timeframe. After a free quote, we worked out the plan for the wiring. Where some things were less possible, Andy called me and discussed. If you’re looking for someone who knows what they’re doing, this is your guy 👌. Cheers again.

Welcome to TM Hughes & Son. Our Electrical work in Loughton includes Earthing & Bonding.

Earthing & Bonding Explained

Earthing: provides a safe path for electricity to flow into the ground if something goes wrong—like a damaged wire or faulty appliance. This stops metal parts, such as the casing of an appliance or pipework, from becoming life and causing electric shocks.

Bonding: connects all the metal parts within a building—such as water and gas pipes—so they stay at the same electrical potential. This means that even if one part becomes live during a fault, there’s no voltage difference between the metal parts, greatly reducing the risk of getting a shock if someone touches more than one simultaneously.

Why You Should Pay Attention To Earthing & Bonding

Neglecting Earthing & Bonding can lead to bad outcomes. Consider a scenario where a fault allows electricity to pass into the metal casing of an appliance. Without a proper earth, touching that appliance could result in severe electric shock. Similarly, if metal pipes (such as those for water or gas) aren’t bonded, they could carry an electrical charge that surprises you when you least expect it. Besides personal safety, inadequate Earthing & Bonding can undermine your insurance coverage and leave you at odds with electrical regulations designed to protect you.

How We Verify Earthing & Bonding

Our Electricians test and inspect the Earthing & Bonding when undertaking any new electrical installation, upgrade or repairs. First, they review the property’s main earth connection. This ensures the connection is secure, corrosion-free, and sized correctly for the system’s demands. Next, they check any supplementary bonding—like connecting metal pipework in bathrooms and kitchens—to ensure these elements meet safety standards. Our Electricians use special tools, such as continuity and impedance testers, to correctly confirm the Earthing & Bonding work.

The Role Of An EICR

An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is a health check for your property’s electrical system. As part of the EICR, Electricians thoroughly assess Earthing & Bonding arrangements. Inspection and testing will identify any faults or deterioration throughout your electrical system. Our Electricians will provide a detailed report and can remedy any issues found.
