Here's an articl from the Charleston Regional Business Journal.
http://www.charlestonbusiness.com/pub/13_1/news/8415-1.html Interesting reading.
Also found a class action suit.http://www.pddocs.com/csst/faq.aspx#Q23
While Googling around I read that the lawsuit has been settled and the gas pipe manufacturers are allowing X amount of $$ to bond your gas service and install lightning protection. If you live in a place of high incidence of lightning you get more $ to do your electrical work.
Has anyone done any of this work yet? What size bond are we talking about? I read on one plumbers site that a #6 copper was needed. It also said that an electrical permit was needed when this type piping was to be installed as new work or remodel. I'm just a little concerned that ground fault current or accidental neutral current might flow on the gas service pipe and cause fire or even explosion.
