Dear Richard, In reply to your question whether the regulations allow the Schuko plug or require the Danish plug, I believe the answer lays in the standard AFSNIT 107-2-D1. I do not have it, however if you check this page from The Electricity Council: <http://www.elraadet.dk/view.asp?ID=161> http://www.elraadet.dk/view.asp?ID=161
you will see that for Class I equipment, you have the choice between different standard sheets (well, I guess normblad means standard sheet). "normblad C 2b - 10/16 A europæisk stikprop med jord (såkaldt Schukostikprop)" is, I guess, the Schuko plug. Can anyone reading Danish confirm this?

An allowable example would be such equipment that uses a "Shuko" plug. Does Denmark really allow this or do the regulations require the use of a Danish certified plug? Even if the practice is allowed, it would seem to me that a company should specify that its professionally installed equipment must use of a Danish plug in order to minimize liability to the company.
