Another vote for the Crabtree 50 amp.
Superb. I pretty much insist on them after being called to a house after a fire brigade call out to a very much burnt out 45 amp switch. So I put a Crabtree in. The best I could get the shower to pull was 40 amp and all the connections were very secure in the old switch - so why did it burn out? So yeah - now I go for that extra ‘comfort margin’ - very little faith in anything else.

Although I agree that the Crabtree switches are very good and make terminating even 10mm cable much easier they do need fixing to the underside of a truss or similar with the way the feed and load cables come through seperate entries, so IMO not always ideal as a replacement.
The Click 50a pull switch is a good alternative, never had one fail yet and they have double screw terminals.
Only usually needs a small bit of wood putting in the ceiling above. Not too much trouble, but I know what you mean.Although I agree that the Crabtree switches are very good and make terminating even 10mm cable much easier they do need fixing to the underside of a truss or similar with the way the feed and load cables come through seperate entries, so IMO not always ideal as a replacement.

Yes, totally agree, I only wanted confirmation by my peers that it would be ok to leave isolator on mostly, to cut down on yanking. But do realize a good quality switch should be able to handle that. But thanks to the main body of the kirk for all advice

None, just double checking with cleverer people, like you
