A client wants five new commando sockets, seeing as you cannot apply any diversity to the commando sockets would i be correct in saying the below will need to assume a maximum consumption of 96a from a 3 phase supply, so as a bare minimum the power supply specific to these circuits would need to be a 100a 3 phase supply? 25mm thermos setting SWA clipped direct?

x4 16a 3-phase sockets
x1 32a 3-phase sockets
 
I don't have a copy of GN1 to hand, but can think of a good few ballrooms where there is diversity on the 63/3 supplies, to facilitate different temporary stage positions. The diversity is justified as only one of the (say three) positions would be used at any one time.
