Earth connection is mandatory under French Regulations, open the above in Google, go to settings and use translate button if your French is anything like mine was.

I very much doubt my french is better than yours was, thankfully I did pay some attention in school even tho it was a hundred years ago. Reading it is happily a lot easier than listening to it tho

The electrical report we got from when we bought the house did mention a number issues of course including the ancient box and wallsockets, as well as the earthing and the RCD's, but it didnt specify the connection rods or some such. I'll verify it before doing anything else, thanks for your concern. It'll have to wait a few weeks but I'll get back here asap.

In the meatime I wish everyone all the best for the near and far future and thanks again for all the time and effort!
