BS 1363 requires them to be tested at 20 A and, in the absence of any specific manufacturer's information to the contrary, that should be considered to be the effective rating.
The wiring rules in BS 7671 & the OSG also assume 20 A max. load on a double skt - e.g. an unfused ring spur in 2.5 mm^2 cable (cable rating >= 20 A) may feed one double skt.
That's per socket. If you ask MK, for example, they will tell you that their double skts are rated at 26 A "provided that the supply wiring is suitable for that current."
