Hi, Thanks for the feedback unfortunately we live miles away from you in Le Marche but I am happy to do whats necessary to get our electrics safe. The appliances I have purchased in Italy are cooker and water heater of which neither are connected to the mains at the moment due to the warning supplied "THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED" so we still have no hot water :(  obviously the sooner the better for getting the water heater installed. Where can I get the necessary earth rod from? you have stated an electrical dealer do you mean BRICO or somewhere similar? Our house has a 6KW mains (upgraded from 3KW) 2 wires exit F/N and then the electrics go all over the place from a junction box to the ground floor and upstairs(typically Italian) on 1st floor there is a small RCD box but all cables are sunk into the wall and thats it no sign of an earth supply.

We could do with some advice we will have a ground source heat pump system when we can afford it, but at the moment need to know how we can prepare for it as a building is at its early stages of repair. We have an area near to the house that is going to be flooded for a pond and would like to put the pipes in the bottom. Any help will be appreciated.

I suppose it all boils down to what someone will pay for a job well done, word of mouth is powerful advertising.
