6.4.3 - BS EN 60309-1
(BS 4343) socket outlet circuits
Plugs and sockets to BS EN 60309-1 are
for industrial applications and are rated at 16 A, 32 A,
63 A and 125 A. All but the smallest size must be wired
on a separate circuit, but 16 A outlets may be wired in
unlimited numbers on radial circuits where diversity can
be justified. However, since the maximum rating for the
protective device is 20 A, the number of sockets will be
small except where loads are very light or where it is certain
that few loads will be connected simultaneously. An arrangement
of BS EN 60309-2 plugs and sockets is shown in {Fig 6.9}.
