Wago connectors and similar seem to be the favourite way these

These seem fine for 20A or less but I'm not sure if there are an series
that can be used for a 32A ring.


Does that just leave crimping for an inaccessible join on a 32A ring?


Cable for a 32A ring doesn't have to be have capacity for more than 20A
if the ring meets the special [wriggle-room] regulation for 2.5mm T&E.
That is that the current in any part of the circuit is unlikely to
exceed 20A for long periods.
