Location of csst bond ???

[ritelec]

I set up to bond csst where it enters into the building and is changed to rigid pipe then back to yellow csst

The existing gas meter was going to be relocated to that location outside the building.

Long story short. They relocated the existing meter a few feet from where it was and the plumber took exterior blk csst to go from the meter, under a deck to tie into where the new location was to be.

Should I bond at the original location I was going to, or at the existing (new) location of the meter after the meter , or ???? After the meter AND jump to where it comes out of the building as originally laid out??

(Exterior) Under ground > pipe - meter- pipe > black csst (under deck ) > pipe (enters building) > yellow csst (interior where I originally planned on placing ground clamp)

Thank you

(Yellow) CSST Bonding

"The gas piping system shall be considered to be direct-bonded when installed in accordance with the following:
The bonding conductor is permanently and directly connected to the electrical service equipment enclosure, the grounded conductor at the electrical service, the grounding electrode conductor, or to one or more of the grounding electrodes used. When additional grounding electrode(s) is used for the gas service, it shall be bonded to the electrical service grounding electrode system or, where provided, the lightning protection grounding system. For single and multi-family structures a single bond connection shall be made on an accessible rigid piping component or CSST fitting located downstream of the utility gas meter or second-stage LP regulator. The bonding clamp attachment point may be at any location within the gas piping system. However, the shortest practical bonding wire length will improve effectiveness of the direct-bond. The corrugated stainless steel tubing portion of the gas piping system shall not be used as the point of attachment of the bonding clamp under any circumstances.

The bonding conductor shall be no smaller than a 6 AWG copper wire or equivalent."

"The 2015 edition of the National Fuel Gas Code, International Fuel Gas Code, and Uniform Plumbing Code limits the length of the bonding conductor to 75-ft. When there are no local code requirements for the length of this conductor refer to the manufacturers instructions or the NEC/CEC for guidance regarding the permissible length of the bonding conductor."

Nice. Thanks for posting that.

So I will bond it as it enters the house

It will be after the meter and bond both the black feed and yellow out through house.

Thank you
