I find it hard to agree with that . The requirement, at least in a domestic property, is surely that there should be a single point of isolation available to the householder/occupier - and I wouldn't say that pulling DNO fuses qualifies as that.Single point of isolation is I would say drawing the DNO fuse.
That approach surely would make no sense. Installation certificates (I presume you mean EICs) are issued in relation to all sort of works, many of which are not particularly 'major', and it would surely be crazy if each time one was issued the number of 'installations' in the building was deemed to have increased. I find it hard to believe that many people would agree with this approach.In fact if we consider what is entered on an installation certificate then that seems a more reasonable way to define it. So re-thinking it all, I would say it is all down to how many installation certificates cover the house, if you have 5 certificates then it is 5 installations, even if only one consumer unit. .... So how many installation certificates cover the house? if more than one, I will change my vote.
