the f2.8 and the shutter speed 1/20 at iso of 400 and the metering shows 0.

And it struggles ..

I just did a super quick test and mine focuses very confidently with both the 12-40 Pro and 40-150 Pro under incandescent lighting with f/2.8 | 2" | ISO 200 (+1 EV) on a dark target. Your lighting scenario is at +5 EV which the camera should be able to handle very easily. Sounds like something is amiss with the camera.

EDIT: I will add though that while the Pen-F is decent, the E-M1 definitely focuses better in lower lighting conditions.
