Wylex 100A dp isolators in plastic enclosures.

hertzal123
Just wondered  why these are not classed as "similar switchgear" to consumer units etc which are supposed to be in

non flammable enclosures in domestics.

    There is an easy solution: put a 100 mA type S RCD in the REC2 enclosure instead of the normal switch.



    Just don't use Graham's metal enclosure version!


      - Andy.

     




    Definitely ... but the RCD would almost certainly make it "similar switchgear", so I guess that won't be an option either.


    Unless, that is, you use the plastic version in a metal enclosure ...
