My fan heater packed up, so I checked the plug fuse. It was ok, but the
power cord has two wires, a green insulated one to neutral and a white
insulated one to live. Double insulated so no earth.
Where is that used? I guess the heater was from Lidl being branded
'Silvercrest'.
BTW, it's working again now - sticky tilt switch.
Nowhere that I know of, but rules are ignored in many far-flung places. The one thing it establishes is that the heater does not comply with UK safety rules. If it were mine I'd be taking a much closer look.
