Hello,
I'm not an electrician but I was looking for some kind of answer among people who know what they're talking about. I just recently had my electrical redone by a "professional" electrician. My husband works for a local cable company and just knows basic techniques for grounding cable systems to the house ground. He walked into the furnace room and noticed the ground braid had been clamped to the gas line that runs directly into the furnace. There was also braid that was ran and clamped to both hot and cold water. The electrician who did the work claims that it is right under the NEC but I just want to know what the real deal is. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Sincerely,
Concerned homeowner
