PIR code advice

[jaresquire]

Would a fuse finder work on neutrals? I'm too lazy to try it but it might help identify neutrals without a shutdown. 'Course you might then need to re-arrange them in the block,

314.1 (ii) would be one

Hi , not sure how this means it mustb be sequential , i dont have book in front of me but googled the reg you quoted,
thanks

Regulation 314.1 Every installation shall be divided into circuits as necessary to avoid danger and inconvenience in the event of a fault,
take account of danger that may arise from the failure of a single circuit such as a lighting circuit, reduce the possibility of unwanted​

tripping of RCDs etc

Well you seemed to have quoted (iii) (i) and (iv) but the one I quoted was (ii)

Facilitate safe inspection, testing and maintenace (see also section 537).

IMO non sequencial neutrals does not aid any of those 3 things and could even be an hinderance to it. So unless I considered the neutrals to be particularly risk, I would code it a 4. Also as mentioned 514.1.2 is another IMO you could cite, I just did the first one off the top of my head, though in all honesty 514.1.2 is the better one to put on a PIR as it is more concise.

a bit of a grey area really then, i agree non sequential neutrals does not aid, . will look at 514 tomorrow when book is in front of me
