HI Steve,

Can you turn the switch "on/off" as you have it there?

If so surely all is well, you would not wish to disconnect the battery whilst 240v was connected anyway...or am I missing semething?

Or is it that the key will foul..could you cut it down a bit?...difficult to tell with no depth perceptioon.

Mr UM

On most isolator switches I've seen, the key has to be in for it to be switched on.

i fitted the same switch as you for the mover if its the same as picture below.just checked mine and its a clockwise turn for ON and the key cannot be removed in the ON position.what you can do is buy a second key and cut off the handle then re-drill and fit a small bar to turn it.i have the same problem if the key was in i could not fit the EHU cable connector.the key must be IN to engage the shut off connection.looking at your picture is is a carbon copy of mine.

just a thought,with the isolator switch having a long neck,can you not fit tubes under the panel on each bolt.? this way you can pull the neck flush giving more room for the key.still be inclined to reduce the key lugs.

Exactly my thoughts. I did this with my motor mover isolator switch. I used a load of washers and packed them between the switch and the panel so that the switch was flush with panel. That should sort it out.

You're a top man Michael..Why didn't i think of that, That'll be much easier than my idea of raising the hook up socket,,Thanks very much

Regards

Steve

Reverse the polarity of the terminals on the back?
