Planning Ring Mains and Circuits

[Ben McCormack <yahoogroup@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All

I am starting to think about the planning of the ring mains within the
house. Lighting will probably be an automated system (CBUS) so the
wiring for that is all taken care of.

The whole house will be gutted and I am intending to run new Ring
Mains for sockets. House is about 240sq m.

Are there any guidelines?

I know each ring main cannot cover more than 100sq m.
Any idea on the maximum double outlets on each ring?

Here are my thoughts

Kitchen Ring main
Dedicated Ring for HiFi - Stopping interference
Ring Main for Node 0 Wiring Cabinet and Servers
Circuit for Outside Sockets
Circuit for Cooker
Circuit for Immersion Heater
Upstairs Ring main
Downstairs Ring main


Anything I have missed?

regards
Ben
