Going back to ring vs radial wiring. i haven't seen the 18th edition wiring regs but I think that rings are now deprecated. I think one reason is the addtional time and effort needed to fully verify a ring final when testing an intallation. A ring final will also carry on working with a break in the ring but is then liable to overheating. The standard circuits for sockets are now radials. 20A with 2.5m cable and 32A with 4mm cable.
