    I ended up removing the load through flap on my custom with the bott racking just have to drill out the rivets on the hinge 😂. Just bought a L2 custom will be ordering new bott stuff this week 👌 I always put a double full false floor in the van. Bottom one houses a set of 5 tread werners and a set of a Zarges 3 ways the second shallower one about 75mm allows you to still use the full load through 🤟

    Each to their own I guess. I think ply looks shit and you know you’re gonna get splinters with it over time. It’s also not crash tested unlike the Bott racking.

    There is no way any electricity would earth through this rod. The gas pipe and water copper pipe will be bounded to the earth and the chances of any short or lightning strike would getting to this rod is zero. Not a chance. Dirt is not a good condicter but the miles of water in the copper pipe is. You better look at the bonding as that is a worry.

    Can I ask a question please buddy… I’ve built a spray booth at home with a 20” explosion proof fan, I’m just connecting in to an extension lead, simply plugged in as it came with a plug pre-wired.. The fan it’s self has an earth screw connection… My question - would it be OTT installing an earth rod like this just for the fan or is there no need? Or is there an easier way? I’m not an electrician obviously! Thank you for any response at all!

    They made the same mistake in Australia with sealing the fuse. Have changed to only the base is sealed and you can remove the fuse.
