RE: Ring Circuit (UK)
As for the number of outlets, in principle there isn't any limit but you should look at the type of load and likely diversity of loads which would be connected and take that in to account. For example it's common to have a ring dedicated to a kitchen circuit where there's a high concentration of moderate to large loads, and a separate ring serving the remainder of the ground floor.
Have a read of the IEE's On Site Guide, or if you want chapter & verse read the current (17th) edition of BS 7671.
