Electrical Load or Amps

[Hiddo]

lighting load it is 2.5kw = 0.9 x 2500 x 1.8
---------------- = 17.76A (lighting includes flourscent light, security flood light and emergency)
230

floor area = 18500 x 5400 = 99.9 m2 (single 32A ring circuit may serve a floor area up to 100m2)

Where is the 0.9 from?

Why would you want to design and install a RFC that is very nearly at its maximum from day one?

Wouldn't you want to install two RFC's to cover for any future growth or requirements?

ring final circuit. thinking too adding extra but would it not increase the total I demand from 82.1 A to over 100A.

Forget it!! You clearly have no idea what you are talking about. Please get a competent person (electrician) in before you either:

A - Kill yourself

B - Kill Someone Else

C - Burn The Building Down

D - All of the above.

Is this a wind up?

Instead of installing a 32A ring final which will take you over your 100A limit install a 16A radial which would you keep you under the limit...then because your using half the current of the ring final you can install twice as many...

Easy...
