    Thankyou , really appreciate the reply and background ... , a very pragmatic reply on how  UK consumer Market actually works  .. ship it until somebody finds out or its a safety issue . 

    ( I must take the Electric Fire with  blue sparking on/off switch on the back to B Q !!)

    Yes the HMG Brexit outlines UKCA but implication is this should apply from 2021 for all new Consumer product ( but perhaps I miss-read the text)  I'm not sure who the Test house will be  and so on. 

    For Radio stuff ( which is my interest) there may be some  spectras that should apply to restrict radiated into UK Bands  for example,( especially with 5G New Bands)  so another minefield .
