The fire alarm is a ' proper system' with smoke heads, pushes etc etc on its own 1 gang board in another part of the building feeding a lcd display control unit, the system is around 12 months old and I believe was fitted by ADT but not 100 % on that,

No personal recommendations, but MEM do one, as do Hager. I imagine all the "proper" makes do.
Mine has the three pronged connector 
FWIW, IMO RCBOs are the only way to protect a commercial installation like this.

same here but its on a three pin plug like BAS' Its unconfirmed but i suspect the switch mode power supply in the adaptor has a filter on the 240V end which will cause some earth leakage.
It would be appropriate to read the relevant Reg carefully..
'socket-outlets for use under the supervision of skilled or instructed persons..'
It does not mean every socket outlet in a premises just because a skilled or instructed person happens to be employed there.
Such socket outlets will no doubt be identified for specific tasks with the proviso that they will only be used by skilled, instructed persons or persons under the supervision of skilled/instructed persons i.e. those who are conversant with and understand the risks and correct working practises.
The Reg is further clarified by the words some commercial or industrial locations. It does not say all commercial or industrial locations.
FR you've been quiet of late!
