Two pairs of tails from meter to two DB's - what do I record in Section L? | Page 2 | on ElectriciansForums

could always replace the adaptable box splitter with a TP&N isolator, thus making a single point of isolation for both DBs.
 
It has no main switch however you dress it up.
Agree. I was at a house last week to quote on some lights. In the attached garage I found 3 CUs. A 6 fuse original and two 2s. So 3 isolators and the top one about 8ft up... All spaghetti tails from blocks. And the circuit they want modified has no RCD. We'll see what happens ...
 
I think Richard Burns had a good point earlier on, that if all the points of isolation are in the same location then that is a different situation to them being scattered about an installation.
Then we get into the 'length of tails' issue, though.
 
I've got one ...an old church 3 ph intake to various single ph supplies, all fed from connection blocks. Tails to local boards and switches with pyros and swa's out to remote boards.
No way can they afford to pay for a main switch and busbar chamber job......plus there's no room to fit it anyway.
NIC bloke's coming later in the month so I might just give it a mention to get him thinking and see what he comes up with...and waste a bit of time.
edit. Wonder if he'll recommend a failure......and shutting them down? ;)
For me it's a note saying individual isolation incorporated on db schedules.
Oh Yes and let him incur the wrath of the almighty,serve the bugger right
