Kitchen on own circuit

[uksparks]

Am I being thick or are kitchens supposed to be on their own circuit, I'm talking of a brand spanking new house.

Dave Sparks you contradict what you are saying by post 44 in the ring main vs radial thread [emoji23]

I'm just saying that I don't see a problem with a 2.5mm cable serving One double socket, being spurred off a ring main. It's totally acceptable by BS7671.

It's the same as the flex on a pendent light fitting being fitted with 0.75mm flex when the rest of the circuit is wired in 1.5mm and protected by a 10amp mcb.

Can be spurred off the origin too, well it used to.
