That is what it is all about.... Spanish adaptation of the regs practice and materials are probably, like the French, put together with countryside supplies in mind, supply cables suspended across fields - a TT schema - and lots of 3-phase agricultural motors for pumps and stuff. I have seen a UK consumer unit with monopolar thingies put in a barn conversion here - designated as dangerous the whole place had to be rewired. (It certainly wasn't done by a UK "Sparky" - other than it had an RCD at the top, it might as well have been an old fuse board.
In France we have the "Consuel" to sign off an installation for connection - and they check that the RCBO (disjoncteur differentiel) are not overloaded.
I cannot see any reason not to use bipolar circuit breakers anyway, except, of course, they are not so cheap if they are any good, and many of the better makes are not available in the brico shops.
