Just a pointer Gary the guys on here don't generally answer homework questions. It's better for you to try and answer yourself then you might be pointed in the right direction.

The word isolation has a very specific meaning. Certain devices can be classified as isolators whereas some devices can only be classed as switches. You need to understand the difference and where it applies.
cheers

Gary, I think what he meant was, you post the answer you THINK it should be, you may then get a response...

 

[Gary91]

oh ok thanks for the replies i am struggling with my level 3 as the notes i was given by my college are useless and the tests i have been having haven't really been relating to my notes so i thought i would come on here as a last resort to speak to proper electricians that know what they are on about.

You should take better notes, the ones I took were spot on, and also got the osg brb to help me too and also guidance note 3

right...
a rotary isolator would be one...

and an MCB can be used for isolation at source...
there...you`r getting no more....
go look it up...

Have a look at the table in section 537 of the BGB, this lists items suitable for isolation and you can select appropriate ones for point of use and origin.

Seems strange that you say recently finished Level 2 and you already have a Level 3 exam, unless you call recently last year.
Or is it, that 2 weeks ago you finished your Level 2 and last 2 weeks u done your Level 3 and hence now your exam, I suppose you will have 1 week for inspection and testing, and that would make the famous 5 weeks. If that’s the case give me a call, I might have some work for you, but first I have to ring my mate at Tesco’s.
Apologies if I am wrong.
