The word plumber is derived from the Latin word plumbum meaning lead. Lead pipes were the most common kind of water pipes for centuries because they were easy to work with. Plumbers actually means anyone who works in lead.
The Periodic Table of elements uses the symbol Pb from the same word to refer to the element lead.
A Plumb bob is a lead weight used to cause a string to hang vertically or plumb. All these words and uses refer to the same concept of using lead.
