A minimum spacing of 25 mm must be maintained between your gas line and the electric circuit. These factors include the circuit type, cable strength, and the risk posed by these appliances. These guidelines provide you with information on the installation of gas mains, services, meters, and other parts of our gas networks. How close can an electrical socket be to a gas pipe? Gas pipes should also be at least 150mm from electrical supply equipment such as electric metering equipment, service cut-outs, main isolation switches or consumer units. When arranging the gas supply for your home or apartment, you need to think through a huge number of things, in particular, the distance from the outlet to the gas pipe, regardless of when the electrical wiring was installed or reconstructed, before or after the development of the project.
