Whole Kitchen wiring diagram advice (excluding lights)

Of course, why wouldn't it?

It's only the U.K. that thought up the ring circuit.
is it any better? Eventually we will move washing machine and filter to utility room (once the next stage of renovation is complete), so there will be less load in the kitchen.

gosh there is a glitch in the matrix, posts are randomly disappearing and reappearing
 
Two rings seems excessive to me however, there are quite a few appliances.
what if we keep part of main (whole house) ring circuit which is currently passing through the room for everything above worktops: like microwave, hood, boiler, and 2/3 double sockets. this way the worse case scenario total load for dedicated kitchen ring circuit will be under 32A . If we consider 1,76kw multicooker (used often), 1.2kw blender and 1.1kw mixer (occasionally) on above worktop sockets this could help to balance the load but might be more confusing for testing and CU labelling or is it very bad practice in your opinion?

It really doesn't matter.


Is your diagram representative of the locations of the appliances?
It doesn't look like it judging by, for example, the WM and DW positions so perhaps no one can tell what is best from looking at the diagram.

Anyway - all the appliances are actually just socket positions.

You don't want cable running here, there and everywhere back and forth.

this is not about position of a cable , this is schematic to assess the amount of devices and sockets on each circuit, may be the order in which those will be on the circuit(s). Washing m goes second after fridge (which is first on the right end of ring , and dishwasher is the last on the ring end. Ignore the turns of lines it is just to avoid mixup (and I no time moving every appliance on the diagram). Otherwise I would do 3d drawing in this case or present each plane (wall and floor) on a separate sheet

A list would do just as well.



If you have more than anyone else has in the kitchen then have two circuits.
