is it a requirement in the 17th that on all new installations a separate kitchen ring circuit is required? or can the sockets be put on say the downstairs ring circuit@

I wonder how many Kitchens, this may apply to.I'm currently designing a kitchen ring circuit where the toaster, dishwasher and electric hob are all each 3kW. The total load, taking into account possible Christmas day use (wouldn't want it to break then!) comes to 10.7kW (46.5A). This means wiring in 4mmsq. and using a 50A RCBO. Are these values becoming typical for modern day kitchens or am I talking rubbish? BlushingThanks for any opinions
shouldnt your hob be on a dedicated cooker circuit?I'm currently designing a kitchen ring circuit where the toaster, dishwasher and electric hob are all each 3kW.
