Still waiting to see if the OP has a reg book
Doubtfulthe op can look at it .
I was thinking 20amp. Are you getting that from a website?
An electrician would not need to look this up on the internet!
Not all the answers!!In the modern world we don’t need books, all the answers are on line.
We know that but they don’t know that.Not all the answers!!

The OP seemed to think that someone had looked this up to give him the answer - I was meaning that an electrician would not need to look up a simple query such as this (regardless of web or printed material). I should be clearer in my wording!
I’m great with all the technical stuff but trying to remember somebody’s name, well now that is impossible, even those I’ve known for years
Who Me? yes I certainly am, why do you ask?That’s very true
Are you a qualified electrician?
NoOk.
But would it be alright to do a radial 16 amp?
The only reason I can think why he said no, is because a 16A socket radial is not described in BS7671 as a Standard circuit.Why is a 16A radial not suitable for a bedroom?
The OP devices of 20A and 30/32A for their respected radial circuits published in BS7671 allow maximising the load to the cable capacity of the cable.The only reason I can think why he said no, is because a 16A socket radial is not described in BS7671 as a Standard circuit.

Yes because i expected the op to know the minimum cable size and circuit protective device required for a radial.Agree, but it seemed odd to just state categorically no.
