Could you please give a link to the regs etc which support this claim?

There is legislation in force about the manufacture of domestic vacuum
cleaners above a certain power input. The idea being to force the makers
to improve their efficiency. But it doesn't apply to industrial machines.

The kettle thing is simply lies, since you can't increase the efficiency
of that to any major extent.


It may be physically impossible

But that didn't stop the numpties in the Commission considering it -
there is public record of that (somewhere)
