Thank You!

For the reasoned response.

In my own case, as soon as I read the notion of a high-power DC ring-main I had a vivid image of some

"No need to call an electrician, I can fix this outlet" type setting their family up for ArcAGeddon.

My current home has traces of a former DC distribution system to living and dining rooms, the places most likely to have a (valve) radio. It was fed by an electrolytic rectifier from AC mains, so not quite the terror of "whole house DC, make sure you have exceedingly macho fuses".
