[[20edo]] (in isolation) is not a particularly harmonically interesting edo, but some of its multiples have high consistency limits (17-odd-limit and higher), and therefore are worthy of being considered in terms of rank-2 temperaments. It's worth noting that [[Degrees]] (discussed elsewhere) is a no-31's [[41-limit]] temperament which serves as a well-temperament of [[80edo]] in the corresponding subgroup, as a 60L 20s MOS is sufficient for finding all its primes.


In the 17-limit, one step of 20edo is extremely close to 88/85, which serves as a period in two of these temperaments – Soviet Ferris wheel and calcium.

Both [[11/7]] and [[19/16]] are reached in eight generator steps.
2000edo and 2460edo are adjacent members of a sequence of tunings with progressively less error in 19-limit. Both [[11/7]] and [[19/16]] are reached in eight generator steps.
