Hi all,
sorry to bring this up again but I cant quite find the answer I need for an assessment
As part of a rewire the ground floor has 20 double 13amp sockets but 9 of these are in the kitchen.
I have been told the kitchen is drawing sockets will have:
13.3 amps from a washer dryer
13.3 amps from a dish washer
1.7 amps from a fridge
How do you work out the maximum demand as I keep getting really high figures!
is it worth going for the kitchen on its own ring of 32 then the other 11 sockets on a 32amp mcb
or does it all go on a 32amp mcb- looking at diversity as i understand it for sockets-13amp for one then 50% for the rest but thqt for just the 13 sockets is = 136amps?
I have spent so much time on this I have completly confused myself so any help would be great!
Cheers
Will
