Hi there,
Just a quick question. I am rectifying many problems on some 3 phase immersion heater circuits in a plant room. There are 4 pole rotary isolators just before the immersion elements and the earthing arrangement is TN-S.
I noticed that the neutrals are connected into a dedicated...
Hi all,
I'm installing a temporary supply to a modular kitchen and need to bring over a new 3PN supply for a new temp consumer unit located externally in a suitable IP enclosure.
The cabin is connected via 63a plug, do I need a rotary isolator to control my 63a socket if the said socket is...
An isolator had heat damage and was replaced, not by me, but the new isolator is 125A instead of 40A. They found one and threw it on.
I locked it off last night and today it is back on line, deemed okay to run until a replacement arrives.
This is on a 20yo piece of packaging equipment.
Anyone...
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.
Hi i have a hot tub job coming up and will need a rotary isolator. I need to bring two 6mm swa's (single phase) into its base and will use pirahhna earth nuts. I know these isolators dont have much room inside em, the larger 63a units (at least the ones I can find) have 25mm knockouts so no...
Anyone know if there is a reg in regards to supply going in to the top of a rotary isolator. We are changing the isolators over for ac units, long story short they won't reach the top terminals now, so feed can only go in bottom. Just a 2.5mm 3 core swa.
Cheers
Currently have feed to 16A rotary isolator, I’m gonna come of this with 2.5mm to a socket then to a fused connection unit to feed 2 lights if lid this ok
Does anyone know of a rotary islotaor, weatherproof, that'll take 2 x 16mm incomers? I've got long runs out to parking bollards so they've had to size up the cable for volt drop.
I could do it with a street light cutout but it wouldn't allow them easily isolate it.
Many thanks for any help.
Hi All
What method do you use for earthing armoured to armoured on a platic 3 phase rotary isolator? Assuming I will have one armoured on top of the isolator and one on the bottom.
At the moment I use the banjos and on the inside of the isolator using an m6 bolt I'll lug the earth cable and...
Sorry if this sounds silly but here goes......
What is the rating of each contact on a 32amp triple pole rotary isolator?
Obvious answer would be 32amp but I just want to clarify incase each terminal is rated at 32÷3 amps to provide a total of 32 amp over the three terminals.
I'm basically...
Hi,
im looking to install a main switch in a commerical premises, so for example board changes, ect can be done without taking out the supply fuse.
Would a rotary isolator be suitable?
can anyone tell me if there is a regulation for the colour of isolator handles? I have just taken delivery of some 20A AC surface mounted rotary isolators with grey and black handles, I always thought they should be Red & Yellow handles??????
When its come to 4 pole rotary isolators, do most of you use one brand or whatever is in stock at the time of ordering.
Fitted 2 Gewiss ones today and thought they'd be good to work with, how wrong was I?
No space in em at all, the cheaper ones from Chint and Europa seem just as good but loads...
Can you come off a 45amp rotary isolator to a fused spur to supply a feed for an out side light???

Any advice would be great help!!!
