Isolation requested

Former Community Member
Former Community Member
Good morning All, 


I need to understand something. 

I know the regulation request the isolation as requested for each electrical installations. 

In the scenario where I have the distribution board close to all the electrical equipment (same room)

and each line is separated and protected by their own MCB.

Do I need to install the isolator too? 

I can isolate every circuit directly from the DB?

Thank you and have a nice day

    Hi Andrea,


    having previously worked in a similar industry as yourself I can confirm we always installed a rotary Isolator so it disconnected all live terminals and was lockable for routine maintenance. It also provides a valuable testing point.
