circuit not isolated by main OR master OR overall phase OR live isolator OR mains switch

This is a circuit that remains 'on;' even when the main circuit isolator is 'off'. Depending on the type of installation and the level, 'sectionneur' COULD be as simple as 'mains switch' (on a piece of apparatus, for example), but I suspect here it means 'isolator' — big switches used for isolating sections of circuits.

For 'général', I tend to favour 'master', but 'overall' or 'main' are possible alternatives.

And do note that the 'Phase' goes with the 'sectionneur' — it is the isolator in the 'phase' or 'live' ciruit(s) — i.e., not the neutral!

Non cut-out circuit main disconnector

Je propose:

main disconnector pour "sectionneur général"

et je devine:

Non cut-out circuit pour "Circuit non coupé "

alors j'arrive à "Non cut-out circuit main disconnector "
(je ne suis pas convaincue....)
