ring main

[bks]

what is the maximum load you can have in a ring main with 32A MCB? guys can you give some idea please.

in all fairness there is the overloading on a small portion of a ring final...

the reason why we stagger outlets as evenly as we can between both legs....

Well, I'm still trying to bribe Marvo to turn off my swear filter in order to get my true feelings out in the open.

Hmmm......[goes off to ponder if the swear filter is bilingual]
