Hi guys,

I've just started a job in electrical design, so trying to broaden my knowlegde fast. I have a few questions

How many sockets can I put on one circuit? i.e. Radial 13A, Is the area of the floor considered here?

Same question with lights?

How is cable sizing carried out? What tables do you use? Very much apprecaite if you could help me out lads... cheers:)

<Question moved to Electrical forum>

Several UK sites explain Ring Main.

Your questions I am sure related to details and codes that will not be found other than the Standards found listed here:

Electrical wiring (UK - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

Even thou the NEC here in the US has been designed to be used internationally, it may be used as a guide, and each country will have it's own requirements, and terminology, nuances.

Hope this helps to get you started.

If your in design, you should purchase a copy of the applicable standards, as I am sure you will need to learn them inside and out.
