What is the point of an isolator. Some time ago the tech guy round checking
for meter dates told me that most meters these days, from the one with the
blinking lights onwards, have had to have an always on supply, though I did
point out that in a power cut it could hardly have one!

Currently with British Gas because we just moved in. Googling suggests
BG charge 43+VAT and isolator, and anyway their fuel rates are expensive
so I need to switch. Googling also suggests nPower charge nothing, but
I've got a very old billing dispute with them, so I can't go there!

Anyone got any info on which other suppliers might do an isolator FOC?


Personally I would tug the board fuse, move the CU meter tails from the
CU to the isolator and then install new tails from isolator to CU.

From previous experience, meter readesr/DNO operatives doesn't care if
main fuse seals are missing.

The other option is to purchase the isolator and cable, request a smart
meter and then offer beer tokens to the installer.
