Section 680.74, 2005 NEC.
Here's the situation.... Jetted whirlpool tub, residential wood frame construction, PEX (plastic) water line from a manifold in basement near the incoming 3/4" copper water main from the street. do you require..........
a) a # 8 copper bond wire from the metal motor frame to the hot/cold faucet assemblies on the tub
or...........
b) a # 8 copper bond wire run to the incoming water main approx 100' away from the tub
or..........
c) some other option that I have not listed
I know how I would (and have) done this, how would this be enforced in your areas?
Thanks,
