In most domestic situations, I wouldn't want to be connecting 2.5mm cable into a light fitting terminals, either, they aren't designed for it.
Hi, just my late night thoughts :Further trying to understand Overcurrent - In europe you have a Radial power circuit protected by a 20A MCB but all sockets are 13A and no fuse in plug so how is the cable of the 13A appliance protected from overload if the MCB is 20A?
Whats the current carrying capacity of flex for most appliances?
We have fuses protecting the flex from 32Amp on a ring but what about 20Amp on a radial?
So the original scenario could be dangerous with a pendant Light the flex not protected from overload by 20A MCB? so a fuse would be needed in this situation - unless pendant is of course wired in 2.5mm flex.
