Q3 requires me to determine the design current for all of my final circuits.I'm happy with most of them except for the ring mains.
How do I work out the design current of a ring main?
The only things I can find are table H2.1 and table 7.1 in the on site guide but nothing that references an...

how do i work out the design current of a circuit? ive been given the voltage, Ze and PFC..
its the highways depot assignment but they havent given me the power of any of the circuits.
I've got a college assignment based around design. There's 4 DBs:
Main CCU
DB1 - Lighting
DB2 - Power
DB3 - Offices

Can anyone tell me if this circuit design conforms to regs?
