Default tying off a ring outlet

Which would be 2.5 t+e for a ring, and thereby require 30A block, no?
chances are the spur would still be in 2.5 t+e anyway ...


Yes, but 30A is a bit big for a single wire of that size.


One might think so, if not aware of how to use them.

Better grip with 15A.


Why? Provided the connector is used properly the grip should be much
the same in either case.

However, if this is a spur disconnecting it at the other end would
be advisable. Alternatively, a switched fused connection unit ready
for some other gadget could be put on the spur.
