why? the links look fine. The links come from the manufacturer, surely you aren't questioning them?
Sure, the supply cable should be sized to carry recommended current. The right size links are already chosen by the manufacturer, so the choice has been made for us. I guess the trick is in choosing the cable size, not the links.The incoming cable should be sized for the power consumption of the item. The links will be taking the same current, therefore I personally would use links the same size as the incoming cable.
load is <20A so 2.5mm csa links will suffice.

The choice is yours to make mate.
