but could someone explain the difference between distrubition circuit and final circuit ? got to mark it ont the cert.

am i right saying distribution ie radial and final is ring ?

[Sintra]

A distribution is a circuit supplying another set of circuits ie a sub main to a consumer unit etc.

A final circuit is the circuit from the cu whether a ring or radial lights or sockets etc.

distribution would be a submain ie feeding a second board.

Have a look in the Regs under "definitions"page 20
Most of the terms we use are defined in there
