    We already have a RTTE direective for radio,and CE marking for everything else, what is being added is the UKCA uk specific standard.

    I suspect very little will change - to CE mark or to UKCA mark you need at the moment to satisfy the relevant directives, which at the moment in the UK and the EU are identical.

    For electrical stuff that is not radio, the Low Voltage Directive, (here)and  also the EMC directive ( normally by complying to one or more EN Euronorm standards.) For radios the radio equipment directive is the usual one to look at.
