Well, that's what it says, clearly. It obviously hasn't been updated to
allow for things like wireless-controlled switching. Parliament has been
too busy with Brexit (or perhaps the 'Marketing of Animal-derived
Shoelaces Order (Wales) 1947'?)
The GPSD applies, I suppose, so any deviation from BS1363-1 that could
compromise safety would be caught.

Schedule 1 of The Plugs and Sockets etc. (Safety) Regulations 1994
<http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/1994/1768/schedule/1/paragraph/1/made>
states
*1.* Any plug, socket or adaptor which incorporates any other
electrical device (other than a F fuse link, switch or indicator light).
Does that mean that “smart plugs” (such as
https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=smart+plug&ref=bnav_search_go ) which
have wireless controlled switching of the output are exempt from the
UK Regulations?
Thanks
