Mennekes (Type 2) sockets are only valid for currents up to 32A.
A lot of import sources do not differentiate between tethered type 2 plugs, and untethered type 2 sockets, so the connectors get imported as a Type 2 socket, even if the current rating is something like 63A.
The 62196-2 standards specify that anything over 32A per phase needs to have it's own tethered plug, presumably because such cables are big and heavy, and drivers wouldn't want to carry them around.
If an import encounteres a Mennekes Type 2 connector, and current is >32A (Typically, anything over 22kW), then the import should map to a Mennekes Type 2 tethered socket instead of the plug.
