Yes I've done calculations. I just asking for advice. I've put a 4 way ryfield before and had to put 35mm tails from cut out to ryfield. But this I'm installing a 400 amp TP/N
fuse isolator
 
You are limited to 240.0mm² for a Ryfield board of that size.
 
Yes 400amp per phase . It's only 3 metres from isolator to ryfield board
185 mm tails with 95 mm earth & 50 mm bonding on a PME earthing system was given by network power.

That's what I calculated but I'll install a 120mm earth
 
The 12 way ryfield will be sub mains to 12 x 100amp red cutouts to meters(being done by southern gas) From there I'll install 25mm 3 core swa to 12 D/Bs 1 being landlords then 11 flats
