2L 20s is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 2 large steps and 20 small steps, with a period of 1 large step and 10 small steps that repeats every 600.0¢, or twice every octave. 2L 20s is related to 2L 8s, expanding it by 12 tones. Generators that produce this scale range from 545.5¢ to 600¢, or from 0¢ to 54.5¢.

This scale is the quarter tone scale of Shrutar temperament.
