There are two types of Radial circuit used for Sockets, Type A2 which uses 4mm² CSA Twin & Earth fused at 30A or 32A covering a floor area of 75m², and Type A3 which uses 2.5mm² CSA Twin & Earth fused at 20A covering a floor area of 50m². As with Ring circuits, there is no limit as to the amount of sockets that can be fitted to a Radial circuit. Your only limit is the length of cable.
