I have used Finolex Wire and go for Havells or even better Hager made MCB to replace the old concept of Ceramic Fuse....MCBs are best as they protect you against fire hazard by tripping off if the line is overloaded or if there is any short circuit..........go for MCBs, the correct amperage of each MCBs can only be calculated by your electrician after considering the load.

Distribution box will consist of all your MCBs / Never overload your electrical line to avoid tripping of MCBs.

Visit the page below:
MCB 0.5 to 63A Hager

I support :

Hager is good, we have 6 yr old hager ELCB Still without any issues in our office distribution panel.

Wires : There are good opinions for RR KABEL.

Finolex is also good. Make sure each 16A pints have seperate MCB, each room ha a seperate mcb for outlets as a whole and the load balancing should be good. Havells MCB also makes no trouble n works years troublefree.

MCB ( miniature circuit Braker) is an overload protection mechanism wherein if there is an electrical fault, there are high chances that the MCB will trip n accidents are avoided. Types are not followed these day majorly. ABCD have to do majorly with the mechanism they use to trip like instant trip, double trip etc. To avoid trippings, use good quality wires n make sure all have earthings. Do not overload points.

Ask your electrician to go for Finolex cables and Hager or Havells MCB.
I have not used Anchor but it may be good........
