I've just purchased the Samsung q930c sound bar and in preparation had already bought a new generic figure 8 power lead for extra length. 
Opened up the sound bar and I notice the fuse is 5amp, the new cable is only 3amp I was going to simply swap over the fuses but the connection into the plug is also unusual as picture attached of the official samsung plug.

Is it safe to use this new figure 8 power cable so long as I swap the fuse? Thank you

Not wise as your wire it rated lower and would fail first, we usually want the fuse to go first causing only fuse damage.

Also why are you using an EU to UK adapter, I assume your soundbar is an EU model?

If that plug is eu to uk adapter, I'm guessing they sold me a EU soundbar.
Decided to use the cable it came with, and rearranged setup.

Is there any issues using each sound bar with uk setup?
