Temperature rise of 13A sockets is only tested for 60 minutes at 13A
(and double 13A sockets only tested to a combined 20A I think).
If it's okay after 60 minutes, is it not likely still to be okay after
10 hours?
In any case my understanding is that if you buy an electric vehicle
you get a 'deal' on a charging point. I only hope it's a better deal
than the Brexit one!
I think it gives you 16 amps and speeds up the charging a bit.
