We handled the power cords as separate items with their own approvals.
And depending on the country the product was being shipped to, the correct
power cord was added to shipment. If a citizen is moving a product from
country to country, it is their problem to get the correct power cord for
country receptacles.
The flexibility of detachable power cords allows for the mixing and matching.
If a product design is such that a detachable power cord is not available,
well, get creative with a bag of adapters.
If a product has the power cord wired into the device, it becomes a country
specific device, or it gets a bag of adapters to fit into whatever country it
is in.

In general understanding, products bearing CE Mark are free movement in the EU.
I doubt how can they do it. For example, a Euro plug is fitted in the product.
How can it operate in Ireland where UK plug is common? Do the products mark
the CE Mark incorrectly or must the products comply with all national
deviations in the LVD standard (some EPSs do supply different plugs but costly
& not common on products)? Did I miss something in the requirements to look
after this scenario? Appreciate the guidance to read the requirements
correctly!
Thanks and regards,
Scott
