Tom Ref those 200V products: are they single phase 2-wire (Neutral + Live) + Ground, OR split-phase (100V on each of 2 Live legs) + Neutral return? (IIRC, it is the latter - probably introduced as a result of North American influence where that configuration is common for high consumption appliances).

At least for household products, majority of products are Class 0 and some specific products such as cloth washers are Class 0I. Here in Japan, mains outlets in homes rarely have PE terminals. Some products such as air conditioners sometimes rated for 200 V, in that case they often have 3-core mains cords.
