My question is about where the cold water bond should be terminated. Most electricians and inspectors in my area(CT) require it to be terminated where the plastic water lines enter the house. My house is a great example, the electrical service entrance is in one corner and the deep jet well pump(with plastic water lines) is in the opposite, meanwhile a cold water pipe is right near the panel. In this case I ran 75' of # 4 Cu from corner to corner. My concern other than time and material is that a fault anywhere on the copper plumbing system would have a longer route to travel back to the source, and therefore a higher impedance overall.
