Wago 221 connectors ratings?

Reading the box of WAGO  connectors 221-413 I am confused by the writing on the side of each connector.

 

One side says 450v/32a, the other side says 20amp 300v. Anyone? so for 240volts??

Edited by Marvin
further thought

Ones according to IEC 60664, the other following UL 486C. Presumably following different testing protocols, ambient temperature, or something 

Although the wago website mentions 600V / 20A

 

Personally I'd start to feel sketchy using them for anything over 230V 16A

Screwfix advertise them as 32amp. So what is right????

They’ll be fine at 32 amps. I’ve seen videos of them tested to far more than that before they start to fall to bits.
