    Free: Various used commando outlet isolators

    I salvaged these from a job rather than skip them. Would need patching up, or suitable trunking arrangement to hide the various holes. Some have only one. They're going in the bin if not taken!

    Fan isolators

    I know we all instal fan isolators but is this just a habit or a necessity. Could a double pole switched fcu be used instead, feeding a permanent live and a switched live via a pull coard? Just a thought or have I missed something?

    Using rotary isolators for switching loads on and off?

    Hi Can you use rotary isolators to switch resistive loads on and off on a regular basis (talking 18KW load here) I personally thought not, that it should be controlled through a contactor but I have seen another installation that is using isolators thx Bigfoots
