In my kitchen there is a dedicated ring circuit which serves the plugs, into which we have washing machine, dishwasher, tumble dryer, kettle, microwave and toaster. I noticed that the two laundry machines are plugged into a dual socket outlet which has been positioned specifically for this purpose. But I've read elsewhere that such outlets are rated at 13A max. The two appliances are rated such that the max draw would be about 20A. Is this problem?
Supplementary question. I'm moving the two machines to a new location and the socket there is on a spur. What issues apply here that are different to the ring socket in the kitchen?
