Do motors( fixed appliance)have to be on earth leakage.
Is my understanding correct. If fed from Switch Socket Outlet the motor will be on Earth Leakage. If fed from a disconnector the motor does not have to be on earth leakage.

That's the way I understand the requirements as well. Motors would only require RCD protection if supplied via a plug and socket.

Is it correct to say as per the regulations motors , Air Conditioners , Water Heaters , Industrial factory machinery , light fans and so on that are fixed appliances do not need to be on Earth Leakage if connected via a Switch disconnector.
This excludes fixed items like underfloor heating , electrode water heater, steam generator or boiler.
