Isolator between meter and CU

[westward10]

I have no idea why people try to find a reason not to provide a single point of isolation on a rudimentary domestic installation. It is an excuse for housebashers to lash in so called shower boards.

If your fitting a 2nd cu in a domestic installation then is a common isolator not being fitted anyway when fitting Henley blocks?
Or is the fuse being pulled and the seal removed?

Just a bit of a curved ball... How would you achieve this with PV ?

The installation requires a warning label stating more than one source of supply

The PV is dead as soon as the board / C.U it's fed into is off.

I agree entirely with your opinion
The opening post was asking for opinions of an argument about regulation requirements,I gave of my opinion as to what is required

Another opinion concerning what is required was given by davesparks

My other postings were trying to find out which is correct

We can all agree on best practice that we may require for our own work
It is also worth knowing what the regs require

I'm still looking for an amd3 version of rec2 (say) or am I overthinking this?

Those quoting an installation being more than one installation when no single means of isolation is provided how do you go about doing EICRs. The Report asks for details of the installation in the singular so if there are three boards and no single means of isolation do you compose three Reports for your three installations.

What do the regulations say on the matter?
Working away so have no books.
