Default Enclosure for DP isolation switch

Hi

The electrical company has agreed to come out and upgrade my tails and

fuse
from 60 to 100A thus allowing me to opportunity to change the old fuse

boxes
to a new split load consumer unit in a kosher manner. What I would like

to
do
is take the meter tails into a DP isolation switch, then into a service
connection
unit (Henley block) thus allowing me to work on the consumer unit and

indeed
any future expansion in complete isolation.

The thing is I've been searching for a suitable enclose for the isolation
switch,
namely a small unit with a clear plastic flap to stop the switch being
thrown
accidently when I rummage around under the stairs but to no avail.

Screwfix
and TLC only seem to sell IP40 lid less enclosures, unless you want the
outdoor variety.

Does anybody know of a source of lidded small enclosures?

Should I even bother with the isolation switch since it sounds like I

won't
legally be able to do any such work myself after next April?

Thanks

Ross



Why not just pull the fuse from the service head ?
