Two supplies and 2 DBs some distance apart... we've come across some nightmares where just which is the main db and just what it'll take to de-energise the entire installation is pretty obscure.Originally Posted by mygoggie

OK, now I understand. Thanks. I think a sketch is now required to explain the layout and to make advice giving easier!
I also have an E/L question. Although SANS states that all circuits must be protected by an E/L all the electrical contractors I have spoken said that they never put the light circuits on the E/L. The reason being that if the E/L trips, the owner then has light to see at night. I do many home inspections a months and out of interest I always look at the DB where I can to see if the light's L+N go through the E/L. Yet to find one .....
