    240v Single Pole vs Double Pole

    Neutral Pole

    Good day. This has always got me confounded. Witha 4-pole 63A breaker, can someone please confirm/advise what the current carrying capacity of the component is? Does the 63A current stamped on the product mean 1. 63A per pole? 2. A total of 63A but limited to 63A in any one pole? If #1 is...

    Hi everyone. The title should sound crazy enough, but it's what happening in my 72-years old home we've purchased 2 years ago.

    Do they make 2 pole isolator light switches and modules?

    My kitchen had an extension at some point and the 2 lights are switched from a 2 gang light switch. It's separate circuits so I can't join them together, ideally I need one module to switch both circuits switch lines, so the lights come on together. Then use the other gang for something else...

    Single pole rotary isolator

    Hi everyone, I have moved into a property with a 63a single pole rotary isolator controling a inline water heater. Is this safe? Surely it should be a 63a two pole isolator switching both the live and neutral? Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks.

    EV chargers and double pole RCD's.

    So regulation 722.531.3.1 says RCD's shall disconnect all live conductors. Is this requirement met if the charger itself contains a DP RCD? As presumably there is no reason that the installed circuit requires a DP RCD? in fact depending on cable type and install methods the cable may not need...
