I now will give my penny's worth .find out who's dishwasher it is then guessing that would be my advice .and try and stop from throwing you dummy out of the pram.
 
I think it is quite a jump from domestic/new build to go into commercial and do a 3 phase but in principle I cannot see why anyone should not do so. The tech department who does the machine should be able to advise. Is there any reason someone should not be helped or encouraged on such a jump really? It seems the basic calcs are done and yes there would appear to be a learning curve involved but are we not here to do that??? or no? Or am I missing something?
 
And with that attitude your not going to get very far are you mate.
haven't got attitude. don't see why people can't share information. we are here for a good time. not a long time.

yes i have done cable calcs to determine cable size. but unsure if a fused isolator was nessasary? it seems not? and my theory of running a separate cpc is also not nessasary??
 
Commando socket serves as local Isolation up to 32amp sockets
However,
Personally I'd come from the DB to a 125amp rotary Isolator then link with a bit of 25mm conduit and mount the plug underneath, or I'd get a interlink socket with a built in isolator.

The reason I'd go this route is because your struggle terminating an 16mm 4 core SWA straight into a 63 amp socket.
In my opinion 63amp rotary isolators are made to small as well.

try 10mm cable.
 
Does your selected protective device satisfy fault protection requirements.
 
The only thing I would consider if using the armour as a cpc would be external influences around a dishwasher. No matter how good you make the connection will it deteriorate from any of these influences.
