Did you actually just go through every post I've made and rate it dumb. Because I accidently pressed dumb on your post while scrolling down the thread. You strange character. Must be a boring Sunday for you

You can remove a rating ....

Blimey calm down pressed it as a mistake stop crying

I did remove it after 40 odd notifications of getting dumb ratings

All appliances need a means of isolation that is accessible without removing the appliance.

Before I give you a disagree, would you like to confirm the reg you are referring to ?

Ok. Stopped removing them now.
Might go back and put them back.
Guess you have more time on your hands than me, if you intend doing all my posts.

I was right - ‘Fat fingers Grant’ We’ll call him - and he’s not the only one . . .

One of the reasons why I use these forums, is to improve my understanding of the Regulations.
Another reason is to help others improve their understanding.
Now I may have an incorrect understanding of a Regulation and someone may disagree with me.
But a simple disagree or dumb rating is no use to me or to anyone else.
It needs an explanation.
I can’t learn if no one is willing to explain why I’m wrong, neither can anyone else.

^^ hit , nail and head spring to mind

Of late I have been challenging people to state why they give me a disagree or dumb with out posting

And I have been explaining my reasoning for giving such feedback .....

The disagree/dumb button needs to go - if not just to calm you down @spinlondon!
People would verbalise their disagree/dumb if no button available .

The MCB on the Cooker circuit could be classed as an Isolating switch, I am not 100% on this one so have kept quiet thus far, however I believe a local isolator for a socket with an appliance plugged into it is not mandatory, please speak up if I am wrong here.

Exactly, bring back the like and thanks button as it used to be. Then hopefully more people would be partaking in threads and debates.

I probably would not code it - certainly not a C2 anyway.

With talk of whether the means of isolation is mandatory - I know that if I was to install any integrated appliance in a kitchen tomorrow without ‘reasonable access’ to isolation, then I’m pretty sure my local BCO would not accept it. They are pretty keen on that round here - not even accepting a SFU in the back of an adjacent cupboard.....

That idea of ‘you can isolate at the CU’ does not seem to fly....

Funny how a lot of Pubs are wired straight from the MCBs to sockets and lights without switches and it gets certified and passed.
