[QUOTE="Mr Sworld, post: 9349, member: 184"] Good point Spec's. However I read the OSG's Table 1A as individual items per circuit. From the third paragraph on p84: [I]The current demand of a final circuit is determined by summating the current demands of [/I][I]all points of utilisation and equipment[/I][I] in the circuit...[/I] So I'm reading that as each individual item has it's own diversity calculation. However the first paragraph on p85 reads: [I]The use of other methods of determining maximum demand is not precluded where specified by a suitably qualified electrical engineer[/I] So that covers your method. I agree that it can be more sensible to consider a seperate hob and oven as a single item, it's just that i love my safety factors! :D [/QUOTE]
