Isolation point for appliance

[stillp]

how are they to be installed in countries where there is no such thing as fused connection units?

In accordance with that country's wiring regulations?

 

[ban-all-sheds]

Probably. Can you clarify where our regulations impose a requirement for an FCU?

And can you explain why if they are OK to be installed in other countries without FCUs they are not OK here?

Can anybody?

Nope.

And can you explain why if they are OK to be installed in other countries without FCUs they are not OK here?

Because other countries have different wiring regulations and practices.

 

[ban-all-sheds]

So you're saying that it is because of differences in regulations that we have to use FCUs and other countries don't?

Can anybody here explain where ours require that?

Do we have to?

"132.15.1 Effective means, suitably placed for ready operation,shall be provided so that all voltage may be cut off from every installation, from every circuit thereof and from all equipment, as may be necessary to prevent or remove danger."

Stop telling people local isolators are not required, you will end up killing somebody.

Who's doing that?

Stop telling people that 132.15.1 mandates local isolators, or you may end up looking stupid.

 

[ban-all-sheds]

Who's doing that?

I will, if you like.

Local isolators are not required.

 

[mwatsonxx]

I will, if you like.

Local isolators are not required.

Your stupidity knows no bounds. I wonder how may people will be injured or worse by following your extremely dangerous advice.

Show us where the Wiring Regulations say that local isolators are required.

If they don't say that, please explain why you think it is OK to insult people who point out that they don't say that.

Do you think that applies to all equipment?

The definition of (electrical) equipment includes accessories.
Do you think 132.15.201 (do you not have the latest book?) applies to isolation switches?

No never seen 132.15.201, what does it say. verbatim.
