Historical question WRT 15 amp sockets.

broadgage

ISTR that in an old edition of the then IEE regs, that two socket outlets each of the unfused 15 amp type could be connected to a 25 amp fuse.

Have found a number wired thus in a large old house. Possibly pre-war, wired in MICC and still in good condition.

    In his little pocket book entitled “Electric Wiring Diagrams”  (First edition 1946, my copy 2nd. Edition 1956) G.E. Stubbs in his preamble to ring circuits says, “Normally a final sub-circuit having a rated capacity above 15 Amps must not be arranged to supply more than one point to comply with regulations."
