Just about to install one of these at work, better to isolate Live AND neutral completely just to be safe. Once I've worked out how this one is going to be done you can have a copy of the schematic mate.

Right, this link will help Biffer and any others interested as this is the kit we are looking at installing at the moment.

http://www.santonswitchgear.com/uplo...0CB1UKB_01.pdf

The link has schematic drawings of how they work and yes, you should isolate all conductors where they come in two pole for single phase and four pole for three phase.
