That's interesting as they don't have such safety devices on caravan

Yeah, I was wondering about all this nanny interlocking.

Pretty sure the IET regs have a prohibition on unshuttered sockets in a

Commando with an interlocked isolator would technically be a departure
but at least trivial to justify.

That's my understanding anyway - could be wrong and welcome correction.
