Is there a guide as to when to use different types (B, C, D ) of MCB's please.

I'd say a low Zs was sensible, not stupid!!

It depends how low, I think that anything too far smaller than 0.08 at the board might start to make our undersized CPCs fail the adiabatic on an MCB protected circuit, especially if you want to try and make 2.5/1 comply...
Hmm. I suppose if the EFLI is very low, the psc would be sky-high, exceeding the 6K breaking capacity
securespark said:This is something I've never fully understood. How can a circuit with a mega -low Zs (and consequently sky-high psc) be protected by breakers with a lower breaking capacity?

D10s seems seriously over the top for lighting and C32s seems like a poor choice for rings (though both could be acceptable if Zs figures are low enough). It seems almost like they just threw in whatever they could find.
you also wan't to find out what that cable they used for the emergency lights was. Is there a BS number printed on it?
