Changing my old board to 17th spec.
Have a 15w wylex board to replace the old split unit.
Old unit (done early 16th) has:-
Grd ring via RCD
Kitchen ring via RCD
Emmersion via RCD
Boiler via RCD
1st ring direct
Loft ring direct
Loft (electric) heating ring direct
Grd lights direct
1st lights direct
2nd lights and house smoke alarms direct
Cooker direct
Misc (under stairs bell xfrmr and light) direct
Was thinking the new config should be:-
Direct
40a cooker circuit (it's a socket + isolator and earth leaks)RCBO
6a 2nd floor lights and smokes RCBO
Spare
1st RCD
Grd ring-32a
Loft ring-32q
Emmersion 2.5mm radial 20a
Misc 2.5mm radial-6a
1st lights- 6a
spare
2nd RCD
Kitchen ring-32a
1st ring- 32a
Loft heating ring-20a ( 2 x 2kw heaters)
Boiler 2.5mm radial- 10a
Grd lights-6a
Spare
Fridge / Freezer is new'ish and hasn't tripped the RCD via the current config ever, so I have no plans to provide a dedicate circuit for them.
Would you do anything different ?
