It seems the 222 series would be fine for lighting or a max 20A circuit.


Do the rules assume an reasonably equally loaded leg of a ring is half
of 32A?


2.5mm^2 is allowed which has an unrated value of 26A. A double socket
has a rating of 20A.

I feel an unbalance leg of 26/32A might be acceptable but 20/32A?
