Hi i have a perodic inspection with an old 3 phase wylex fuseboard with mcbs to bs3871 type 2 fitted the 3 phases are in rows ie banks of ten red/ yellow/ blue,there are a couple of 3 phase items fitted to board split between rows ie on single phase mcbs! Would this be a code 1? Any ideas,advice would be great:confused:
 
BS7671 530.3.1... refers to multiphase devices having all poles operate togetehr. Yr 3871 are no longer current and so I would think they need changing

3P isolations should operate on all three phases together. I beleieve Sct 11 and 12 and maybe 15 of the Electricity At Work Regs apply
