Question I have is, is it ok to have x2 ring main circuits on one 32amp type B MCB??

If so does this meet the current regs.

TIA.
 
Not really other than it's not called a ring main a ring main is a distribution circuit it's ring final circuit if you get your terms correct you may get some better responses

Pete, I think you might have quoted the wrong person.
 
If you are referring to me Tel, then nothing gets up my snout more than Wannbee's quoting something they know little or nothing about post ban waiting, still no one likes the truth these days do they?
i was referring to the poster who drew all those figure 8 etc. circuits.
 
Pete, I think you might have quoted the wrong person.

probably did in my state of mind
It happens. A few times (not here) in the past I've had "discussions and debates" (ahem...) lasting multiple posts where I've misattributed what had been said. The arguments over what had been said were valid, but with the wrong person.

Worse things happen at sea.
 
Actually, just to be a bit naughty - what is unsafe about a large number of radials, each one having not more than one twin socket and all connected by say one 32A MCB. Not actually unsafe proving the joints are reliable both electrically and mechanically and all volt drop and Zs are catered for.
I wouldn`t like to see it but it would not cause piles of dead bodies to litter the place.
Bring back (and uprate) the octopus....
