Is an Isolation Switch Required

[Specialist]

I have fitted many a main switch to replace a CU and never cut the seal or pulled a fuse. Who said that not me surely and don't call me Shirley.

So your the one that taught me the bad habits I don't have, obviously I wouldn't do anything naughty like that. My halo might slip.

That's the 12th time I've seen 'dynamic risk assessment' this week, it must be one of those new buzz words designed to give H&S jobs worth's a semi.

'dynamic risk assessment' == if it looks dodgy probably best not to == common sense.

I thought it was "it seemed like a good idea at the time "

We did a CU before I left my uncle's and we had the meter open, tails out, the whole shebang. We were at the top of the stairs and the customer shouts up "is it alright if the meter guy comes and takes a reading?"

Honestly, talk about impeccable timing. "Erm no, can I shout it down" was my response. "'Fraid not mate, need to come have a look" was meter guys response.

We just downed tools and went outside out the way. Expecting him to come out and kick off and tell us he'd contacted his boss, nope, he came out and spent the next 10 minutes having a bit craic about football.

Not new young thruster, something we did years ago before you wore safety hat, toe tectors & voltage detector.

'Dynamic risk assessment' == something looks dodgy, but having weighed up the risks, and the safety measures I've put in place, I reckon I can safely carry out the task in hand, with no risk to myself and others around me.
