    Switched Fused Spurs

    When you put in a built in appliance in a kitchen which is fed from a switched fused spur, do you hard wire the supply or keep the plug on with the 13a fuse. Personally I'd like to hard wire it but then this will make the products guarantee void, so you could still end up with the issue of...

I've looked at Section 537 in regs and i'm still a bit confused. My understanding is that you need to have an isolation switch so you can...

    switched spurs and cooker switches

    I remember a while back there was some discussion about this. But for switched spurs and cooker switches, can they be placed in cupboards? I know they need to be accessible, so if you fill the cupboad you can say it does become in-accessible.
