The vast majority use the standard kettle connector. Rated at 10 amps.

Most kettles I've seen lately have the lead wired direct to the base

Yes - and they're generally 10 amps too.

I did look for a 'cordless' 3kW one some time ago with no success. Perhaps
they are available now?

Perhaps it all due to making a universal product - many 230v countries
have a 10 amp limit for sockets.
