I just can't believe these isolation switches have anything to do with the contents of saucepans on stove tops (induction hot plates) catching fire. The last thing I would be thinking of in this situation would be to turn off the isolation switch. My actions would be very much directed at what the hell I am going to do with this fire in the saucepan. The need for an isolation switch must have some thing to do with (as above) "A circuit for fixed or stationary cooking appliance having an open cooking surface incorporating electric heating elements....." So...If the source of heat is regarded as an issue why isn't there a need for an emergency gas shut of valve for gas cook tops? Induction cook tops just do not have an open cooking surface incorporating electric heating elements. I just don't get the need for these isolation switches. Seems very much like a belt and braces approach particularly when safety switches (at the switchboard) are there to isolate when any electrical issue arises. cheers barkly I’d try giving it a light sand with fine-grit paper (nothing too aggressive), wipe it clean, and then put on a super thin coat of oil.
