Wouldn't you want a local point of isolation, rather than using the MCB/RCBO?Why would a dedicated circuit need a fused connection unit?

Yes I would agree. But a 20 amp DP switch may be more appropriate for UFH, depending on the wattage of the heating mats.Wouldn't you want a local point of isolation, rather than using the MCB/RCBO?

To be honest I just want an end to get a reading off! I said fused spur as that what I would normally see but some type of isolator or end of circuit to be able to get an r1 + r2 which i am currently unable to find.Yes, a point of isolation would be very sensible, my question is more about why they would want a local fuse rather than just an isolator.
Normally I would expect to see some sort of fused spur or at least if myself or the majority of people were to install such a circuit, then a fused spur would be put in - no!! or at least a point of connection to the UFH! Which i am unable to find.

"FI" automatically makes the Report outcome "Unsatisfactory".You'd just mark it as FI and note why. However you'd also use your engineering judgment based on the condition of everything else as to whether you think it's likely to be an issue or not and issue satisfactory or unsatisfactory on that basis
Since when?! On that logic, any LIM is also an unsatisfactory"FI" automatically makes the Report outcome "Unsatisfactory".
