Guest Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 Well, they're not a contravention of the regs if used correctly. They are fine for functional switching but for isolation according to the regs all live poles should be switched with a minimum of 3mm contact gap. A single pole fused spur doesn't do this as it doesn't disconnect the neutral. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Giles Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 Your telling me that all unswitched 13A connection units will now be double pole then? PG Security Systems Somerset SSAIB Certificate of Merit Installers. www.pgsecurity.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 No, I'm telling you that all unswitched 13A connection units are not suitable for using as isolators for fixed equipment, never have been, never will be. For correct isolation of single phase fixed equipment with one supply only double pole isolators, such as switched fused connection units or the Contactum DP key switched spurs, will comply.
