Electrical Regs in Ireland (Dublin)

tattyinengland
Are there any Regs or conventions restricting the amount of sockets per circuit in Dublin?


Having just done Berlin, it seems that each circuit did one socket, and I rightly, or wrongly, added one socket in a radial fashion using BS8436.


I'm about to add to existing circuits again in Dublin and wondered if anyone had a copy of the irish regs or knew from experience?


Kind Regards


Tatty

    Others here will know better than me the details of the Irish regs - but from what I gather they're historically based on UK regs




    I would suggest that it would be more accurate to consider the Wiring Rules to have been traditionally a bit of a hybrid between German and UK regs. The ESB (the DSO) had a lot of dealings with Siemens in the early days if I'm not mistaken.
