UK Cat I alarms and Cat II immobilisers require 2 cuts, Oz and New Zealand 3 though frankly with the OEM immobilisers it ain't needed.
Like most experienced sparks/installers I'm loathe to make extra cuts, in fact the UK ACPO (Association of Chief Police Officers)are in agreement with their US equivalent, starter cut only.

Thanks.
And I'm in total agreement - an open-cut can make you the coal of the future.
The starter is fair enough, that's (usually) not life threatening.
I'll usually suggest "shorting" type disablers - even then I worry that if the NC contacts (86-87a) of a relay are used and the relay de-energises or fails... (EG - grounding poins or igniters, or shorting other essential sensors.)
We used to hang horse thieves. These days when cars are cheaper than horses were, we seem to kill ourselves. And all for a "possession" that is less critical than horses were.
And these days, we even have insurance.
Thanks again.
Maybe one day I'll find out what we do for immobilisers down here...
(Surely modern OEM is enough?)
