Charlie,
Thanx for your remarks (and those of John W, too) clarifying details.
I do remember, however, that the EU and the UK started on a 10 year
Voltage harmonization project moving toward 230V at 1 V change per year. The
EU completed the project but the Brits seemed to fal

Thanks for some clarification 😊
I'd missed the initial parts about plugs - article 10(10) cited in the OP is
solely related to the Radio Spectrum and nothing to do with plugs, or safety
under article 3.1(a).
Whilst the UK might be 240V and the EU 220V, they are actually harmonised as

Scott was asking about the RED and CE Mark; the bit about mains plugs was an
example of 'in some countries'.
The mains voltage is 230 V +/-10 % across all of EU and EFTA, but it does tend
to be lower in former 220 V countries and higher in Great Britain (not UK,
because Northern Ireland was o
Scott, John et al,
My take on Scott's question is one that is being asked more routinely
these days as the IoT spreads to many more product types.
Within the EU there are two principle operating zones: UK at 240V and
the rest of the EU at 220V. Attachment plugs and sockets ar

Yes, it's a requirement in the RED - article 10 states:
2.Manufacturers shall ensure that radio equipment shall be so constructed that
it can be operated in at least one Member State without infringing applicable
requirements on the use of radio spectrum.

The RED calls up the CE Mark Directive. The RED is a free download, so you need
have no trouble in studying it. I would even send it to you if the list allowed
attachments, but it doesn't.

Hi Charlie,
“The product should be CE marked to the RED - a product may be CE marked to the
RED provided that it can be used in at least one member state”
It is a requirement of RED, not CE Mark?
Thanks and regards,
Scott

If a product is restricted (due to restrictions on putting into service in
geographical area) to be used in some countries, there is a contradiction to
the CE Mark on the product that allows to be free flow between countries.
Doesn’t the free movement mean the allowed use in the countries?

What do you mean by 'below restriction'? There are detailed rules in the
Regulation about products that are only allowed to be used in some countries.
But the CE mark must be affixed anyway.

The CE Mark is a conformity scheme that allows for the free flow of products
between countries in the European Economic Area (EEA). If a product has below
restriction in RED in some member countries, can the product be affixed a CE
Mark?
Same as a UK plug fitted, the product should be used in
