that was the old MK sockets put in them days ,try the new ones ,then you will struggle .I also ran 6mm radials whilst working in Canada @110Volts using MK 110V socket outlets, had nil trouble with connecting them up either

Have rewired a house before with that exact request for that reason...Great idea.
20A is plenty for a bedroom and when the kids don't get off the consoles you can switch off the mains to their bedroom.
I also ran 6mm radials whilst working in Canada @110Volts using MK 110V socket outlets, had nil trouble with connecting them up either. Just saying.
Hi check regulations , can use radial 2.5 mm serves 50 square meters 20 amp cb& 4mm at 75 square meters 32 amp cbI cannot understand how someone can be working on electrics in Canada and not know the voltage is 120v plus or minus 5%. 110v is a myth and outside the permitted tolerance.
Just to be even more pedantic.....and being sick to death of this subject...….I'd go for radial, 1.0mm T+E, 5 amp 3036 and a row of 5amp sockets....Just to be a Pedant they are not Ring Mains any more they are Ring Final Circuits or RFCs
Increased the total available current from 32A to 40 or 50A
Can you say what these positives are?I always use rings unless for 1 or 2 dedicated sockets. I find there are far more positives to the ring than a 4mm radial circuit.
