And another question ... If the isolator between the REC's meter and the CU were made to be a change-over type it would also be a safe way of connecting a generator to the CU - but where to buy one from? The local CEF just quoted £165 for a 100A DPCO surface mount switch - seems a bit OTT. Any suggestions on where can I get one for a more reasonable price, surface mount or DIN rail mount.

A used one, but looked in very good order just sold on ebay for £45.
TLC do them- not sure wot the price is- around £100 i think.
Tim..
You do need a swicth with three positions (The center being off), unless your generator is syncronised with the grid!
Sparks...
Do you really want everything to go over to the generator, or would perhaps a seperate ring be more appropriate? (as well as incidentally cheaper)
