Default H05VV-F cable special or generic?

An examination of the innards of the device and how hot it will get might
prove informative, since if its all pretty bog standard, I'd say its OK, I
mean most kettles seem to not exactly have heat resistant cables on them,
Just thick pvc and it don't arf pong if you accidentally burn it.

f-cable-specification/

I've managed to damage the cable for the slow cooker.

It is marked with all sorts of stuff, including H05VV-F.

From the specification above it seems to be used for all sorts of things
including PC power cables, and isn't particularly heat resistant.

I was going to check the cable stash to see what was there.
I know I have some white flex on a reel but haven't yet checked it for
markings.

At the moment I'm trying to work out if there is something extra special
about the flex for this particular use, or if a generic reel of cable will
do.

Cheers
