The "fitted plug" provisions will not apply to those appliances that are listed at the appendix. Part iii - Information requirements
Most appliances ae now supplied with a moulded plug, which cannot be opened. These are fitted in the factory, and if damaged the only option is to cut through the flex and fit a normal plug. It might be worth it though. In a Which? survey of 3,774 members in May 2023, 79% of people using custom-made ear plugs found them very or extremely effective (compared to 36% for those who used disposable and reusable ones).
