Oil Boiler Isolation Switch.

Zoomup
Evenin' All,


Regarding an external ground sited domestic oil fired boiler for heating and hot water that has an internal switched fused connection unit nearby inside the house, what regulations will require an external electrical isolator adjacent to the oil boiler? You know the sort of thing, a double pole rotary isolator.

    Just as long as the FCU is capable of being secured if it can't be supervised by someone working on the boiler - most are these days - but not all were. Also capable of breaking N as well as L if it's a TT system.
