Default 100 amp isolator

JOOI what spec does the cut out isolator switch have to be?.

Would a 100 amp one in a wall mounted 2 Units wide DIN rail enclosure
be sufficient?...


Like these?..

An isolator is just a DP main switch in a suitable housing - yes the above
would work.

The Wylex REC2S is a bog standard main switch in a highly optimised housing.

The one thing about the REC2S is you can remove the cover on the load side
terminals only, leaving the supply side covered. This makes it a tiny bit
safer.
