Customer will be hiring a qualified sparks, but can anyone give me guidance as to how a single floor open plan office should be wired in terms of circuits?
There will be 3 islands of 8 desks and 3 of 3 desks, each desk served by an under-desk 4/5-way with a Weiland-to-13a lead. 13a sockets will be in 100mm trunking round perimeter, and each desk island hits a wall. How many of the desk supplies can be on a single 30a ring? If the total max load does exceed 30A can they theoretically be on the one ring? Would it be prudent to split into more than one ring? Advice gratefully received! Thanks
 
assuming computers on each desk, you are limited by cumulative leakage, and should be installing hi-integrity earthing.
Wouldn't install a RFC, a radial for each Work Station would be my choice, with HI earthing as well. Regulation 543.7.2.201 refers, OSG 7.5.3
