Cable calculations

Hi guys i wanted to calculate the maximum run when spuring of a ring final circuit is there any equations or is it just as simple as calculating VD to the furthest point in the ring and then VD to the end of the spur. The reason for the question is I want to spur of an existing socket using a 10meter run of 2.5 for an outside socket. Just want to Double check it’s sufficient 


thanks guys

    7.2.2 Socket-outlet circuits

    As a rule of thumb for rings, unfused spur lengths should not exceed 1/8 the cable length from the spur to the furthest point of the ring.
