And nobody sees a problem with 13a sockets on a 32amp circuit?


In practice few sockets round the house are likely to be loaded to
anything near this, since heavy *continuous* loads like heating ain't
normally done off the ring main. The likely sockets which will have this
sort of loading - but not *continuous* - are in the kitchen, where there
will usually be a separate ring. And the wiring for the average ring is
capable of carrying more than 32 amps anyway.
