6A lighting cct to supply a 13A socket

So, we all know about feeding lights from a socket cct, but would you do it the other way around, running on to a single 13A socket from a 6A lighting cct (which is wired in 1.5mm2, to run a few LED's) to supply a lawn mower and similar items? Somebody was given a quote to install the socket.

    You could ask why a circuit in 1.5sq.mm. has a 6A MCB.




    I've not as yet seen 1.0sq.mm for lighting in my area of Scotland - they like their 1.5 up here!
