What's the maximum number of double plug socket outlets that can be on a ring circuit?

Don't think there was ever a max. number on a ring
The ring could serve a certain area, think it's 100m2

It's being phased out now for domestic

It's not really being phased out. It would be more accurate to state that many don't employ them - there is nothing within the Rules to deprecate their use.

That's not a Rule - it's in an informative Annex and as such is merely guidance.
