I like the 'on' arrows.....when the breaker tells you anyway.
Although it may be 'Oz'..... Never never land.
I saw the word 'morons' quoted on another thread, earlier. More relevant here, I would say. Just bad work done by someone ignorant of requirements.
A great factor, initiated by M Gerin is the individual MCB isolation, when it's used correctly.
 
Was fault finding why the 63A MCB for some sports pitch lights was randomly tripping. Opened the DB and saw this. How many defects can you find?!
Do those bus-bar screw covers actually cut power as the on/off says? If so a couple are half-way!

Not to mention that unused ons that should be in the off position...
 
Called out to replace a faulty 2gang switch. Managed to get to the supply in the dark under the stairs but it took a few moments to fathom out where to isolate the lighting circuit. Built in 1965, original wiring, with various additions, of course.

Would you bother looking for fuses in that scenario or just turn off the DP main isolation ?

That's what I tend to do if posssible
If you look at the main switch, that's what I did.
It just needed a bit of looking at....no labelling....and it does tend to help knowing what's what.
Could have been fed from a 60amp fuse, for all I knew.
