Is a sectionable earth strip mandatory with the NF C-15 100 standard? I just built a house RT2012 and the electrician put a simple earth terminal and argues that it complies with the standard.

The measuring bar is not required. It can be replaced by a main land terminal. On this main earth terminal, the clamping of each of the conductors (earth conductor, main protective conductor, main equipotential bonding) must be separate. This being the case, a severable strip of ground does not cost much, and it has some advantages: if need be, cutting the ground, locating the earth well when the vegetation has grown a little, measures the "quality" of the land, etc.
