This may be a stupid question but hey, what the hell, I'll ask it anyway.

In almost every diagram I've ever seen regarding ring or radial circuits,
the cable comes into one socket and then on to the next, from there it
goes on to the next and so on, in a daisy-chain sort of arrangement.

Would the circuit layout shown below be acceptable? If I can put the
junction box where I want to, it'll sure save me hours of sweat,
frustration and tears )

TIA

2.8kW load

It would be fine. Options to consider though are, 1.Use a fused connection
unit instead of a JB, 2. Bring a cable back from FCU to the MCB creating a
ring which will allow 30A instead of 20A and allow for future expansion
