[QUOTE="Drumtochty, post: 537175, member: 35881"] Thanks for the reply, the guidance on radial circuits seems to be for a a maximum of 50sqmtrs floor area per for 2.5 twin and earth radial circuit with a 20 amp mcb or 75sqmtrs with with 4mmsq twin and earth radial with a 32amp mcb or as you suggested rcbo's to stop the rcd switching off all the attached mcbs on that part of the board in a fault condition on one mcb. The client wants the 17mtr front face of the garage to have a say 12 single metal clad sockets. That is 15mts from the far end to the consumer units then the next 2 mtrs to the corner, continuing down the 15mt front to back wall and again another 12 sockets and a further 12 stretching along the back wall. He has no requirement for electrical sockets on the final 15mtr return wall. How many radial circuits would you suggest in all reasonableness? [/QUOTE]
