Do the regs specify whether a neon is required on the FCU for a
boiler, and separately on the feed for a gas hob and extractor unit?

They don't specify a neon must be fitted to anything.

Given that the FCU for a boiler is likely to be left on all the
time, what is the benefit of a neon? Ditto for a hob and extractor
unit.

How much power does a neon use when on 24/7, out of interest?
