[QUOTE="Evans Electric, post: 474709, member: 1408"] No risk of overload with one twin socket , in theory could be loaded to 23A cable clipped direct is rated at 27A . A short circuit would trip the 32A MCB . But looking at the 17th ed. ratings ...in a stud wall with thermal insulation and cable NOT TOUCHING the inner wall your rating is down to 13.5A so you'd have to fit just a single socket or wire it in 35 sq,mm X 2 core Pyro to be on the safe side . :innocent [/QUOTE]
