Hi atm I have the above switches around the kitchen for all my appliances. Now do you still fit these above worktops or just have a socket fitted below in cupboards ?
Thanks

There is no requirement for them. I have never fitted them apart from for a cooker. A line of switches above the worktop looks carp to me.Hi atm I have the above switches around the kitchen for all my appliances.

No requirement perhaps, but also no need to skimp and do the bare minimum.There is no requirement for them. I have never fitted them apart from for a cooker. A line of switches above the worktop looks carp to me.
Or sod.The site doesn't censor 'crap'.
Well that clinches it for me.There is no requirement for them. I have never fitted them apart from for a cooker. A line of switches above the worktop looks carp to me.
"Isolation", in the true sense, does not really require "quickly", so I presume you are really referring to "emergency switch" - for which I agree, there is something to be said.If you consider it important to be able to quickly, safely and fully isolate an appliance then ....
There is, of course, no regulator requirement for either isolators or emergency switches for domestic appliances
Indeed so - but that obviously relates to the entire installation, not to an individual appliance.other than the requirement for a single point of disconnect ( or words to that effect ) which deals with "emergencies".....There is, of course, no regulator requirement for either isolators or emergency switches for domestic appliances, but that dopes not mean that there are not valid arguments for having them.
