I can't remember if we may have already touched on this subject. If so, please forgive the repetition.

I know the standard Aussie/NZ outlets are rated 10A, but what OCPD ratings are usually used with these sockets? Are there are any specific rules about the maximum number of outlets per branch circuit or the maximum floor area served by each circuit? Do you require (NEC-style) specific small-appliance circuits for kitchen/diner areas?
