John, This clause means that IF a detachable plug is used it should not be of a type which is normally used to connect to the network. In other words, if you disconnect the cable from the CE to the LIU, at the LIU, you should not be able to then plug that cable (coming directly from the CE) into a standard network line connection socket.
Hope this clears it up a little.
