What's an SA?No you don't need a licence to be a SA
I was enquiring as to whether New Zealand had done away with licencing for Electricians.
I’ve been informed that they have, thought I’d ask a Kiwi whether it is in fact the case.

Yep, I probably should have done.In that case you could have worded your original post better, it looks like one of those SA comments you get on here when someone ask's for advice.
Most of the special circuits, that should be on an individual DP CB if I can remember them all are:
Washing Machine
Tumble Dryer
Oven
Hob
Dish Washer
Water Heater
UFH
Fridge On separate RCD
Freezer On separate RCD
Alarms
Outside dependancies
Garage
Electric heating inc ASHP
Towel Rails
Extract Fans
Max of eight sockets on 1.5mm protected by 16A
Max of twelve sockets on 2.5mm protected by 20A
No ring mains allowed
All lighting to have an earth running to them even if not used
Everything metal has to be earthed even if built into the walls
No T & E allowed all cables must be double insulated and of the same cross section
That's all I can think of at the moment, but if anyone is interested PM me and I can direct to the best information source.
Most of the first 15 items on that list is over engineering and a complete waste of resources and money.

Don't you think you are over complicating things a bit Mike?

We don't have Polyphase supplies in most domestic dwellings Mike. Can't see what you are getting at?Not me, that's the EU regulations for you, but if you look closely you will see the board is three phase.
