    Appliances with hard to get at sockets require a 2 pole isolating switch. Under counter sockets etc. Its not the same as a spur really which is fused.

    inaccessible sockets have a separate isolating switch

    usually leave moulded plugs intact to avoid any warranty nonsense


    if it's a ring cct-it'll be a switched spur as branches are no longer allowed

    domestic kitchens are radials now-so they'll be 20amp DP switches
