Hi Guys

The question I have is fairly simple:
1. Am I infringing on the regulations if I do not place a switch disconnector next to a water heater?
2. Under what section does it fall under?

I have looked through the "Fixed Appliances" Section 6.16 but it clearly states in the NOTE: that it applies "in 6.16.1.1 to 6.16.1.13" which EXCLUDES water heaters.
In section 6.12.2 "Water Heaters" there is no requirement for a switch disconnector to be fitted.
In section 6.16.7 "Electrode Water Heater, Steam Generators and boilers" there is a requirement for a switch disconnector to be fitted (6.16.7.1)

So my question is again where does a water heater and a solar water heater fit it?
Thanks
