Greg:

I appreciate that the convention is to wire up sockets on separate up and down breakers but it occurred to me that, given a centrally located DB, it might be better to make the division in a premises between say front and back. Ring or radial circuits could run between the floors to directly power sockets on the first floor with spurs running downwards from each socket to their counterparts downstairs. This plan might especially suit modern builds with concrete floor where the wiring would need to run between floors. Apologies if this is an issue that has already been discussed but I was wondering what other people thought.
