Just having a quick look at this to try and identify circuits from the
colour of the fuses (cartridge or wire, not sure which).
I know these are getting less common as time goes on, but it would be
helpful dealing with old installations.
I think that red dot is 30/32 amp for ring mains, white dot is 5/6 amp
lighting.
However there seem to be two blue dots.

White-5A Grey-10A Blue-15A Yellow-20A Red-30A Green-45A
As far as I know there is 13 amp, lighting, an electric oven from Ikea
(which may or may not be 13A), a combi boiler (which may or may not have
its own circuit) and an electric shower which should have a green 45A.
There are two red dot, one white dot, and two (apparently) blue dot.
More later.

As posted a while back I was distracted by the waste pipe buggeration and
the hardest bricks in the country, otherwise I would have had the time to
investigate.
