More than one circuit on a breaker; what code, plz!

[telectrix]

also, you have an unused way in that board. split the circuits and fit a 16A? fuse and carrier in the unused way.

If its the red one, might be ok, might be in 4 mil !

from the photo it looks like a spur from a RFC so no code

Scary thread

so the board would be a 4 anyway unless the bathroom is fed from this board without any RCD protection and no supplementary bonding....then its a 2.....

Look up 'circuit' in definitions then you'll come to the conclusion that it's just one circuit.

It's two circuits up until the point it's inserted into the breaker, that's the point in time it becomes one circuit.

....and if it's a functioning ring with all results correct and compliant, with say two spurs, its probably still ok as it is.

but if its a 30A fuse and the spurs are in 2.5mm together with the "strong" characteristics of BS3036s.........

I meant that radial coming off it....

Too many unknowns! :6:

Wylex red would be 32A if following convention, can't quite make out if that's 3 or 4 cores in there though!

weel ...looks like 4 at first glance....but its actually 3 coming in....the other one dips behind the neutral bar/block.......

If it's four then I'll buy it as a solution, if it's three then the breaker is too high a rating for a spur in 2.5mm IMHO

Edit: assuming 4 = 2xRFC

 

[GLENNSPARK]

2.5s n all i`d say.....

yeah....thats what i was getting at in post 23 TQ......
