My question is can this isolator switch be replaced with an 18th edition 3 way metal enclosure with double pole isolator switch and 40a mcb or should it be replaced with a 60a (or 40a) cartridge fused double poled mains isolator switch.
Yes, a metal clad garage unit may be used with an M.C.B. This can be easily reset if required as opposed to having to replace a cartridge fuse. The effectiveness of earthing has to be confirmed at this position by a qualified electrician for safety reasons.
We're making some changes behind the scenes to deliver a better experience for our members and customers. Posting and interactions are paused. Thank you for your patience and see you soon!
