Whats happened to him?
Have seen him post recently. He was put on the naughty step a while back. Perhaps he's become 'disillusioned'.

I'd get a proper sparks in; soon have that sorted for you.
PS, there's a member on here called Murdoch, from your neck of the woods. Could ask him.
Don’t forget the ones that like to use radials because they can’t test rings

My first house was/is very similar; 63A/30mA RCD Main Switch, 32A Cooker, 32A Ring, 6A each lights up, down & smoke detectors. New build 1998.My current 3 bed 1980s semi has 1 ring on a 32a mcb for the entire house. Like this from new I presume. Not been rewired.
In fact it only has 4 circuits in total.
Cooker , ring , immersion and lights.
Proteus split board , cooker , immersion and lights non rcd And ring on the rcd. Loads of spare ways.
I have to agree here. I’m not at all a fan of RFCs, but there are circumstances where it makes more sense to use one instead of a radial. And I also agree that one 16A or 20A radial Circuit for general use Sockets per Floor is plenty for the average dwelling.They always baffle me these threads. Use whichever circuit is best for the job having taken all design and operational considerations into account.
If you can't install a ring circuit properly, use radials is my advice to those who assume rings "dangerous"
As far as I know the minimum CSA for power circuits is 1.5mm^2.Should the fridge and boiler not be 2.5mm as they are power circuits not lighting circuits @kingeri
