Circuit to it might need RCD protection or the supply parameters - TT et al

Not the machine specifically but if they're are plugged in then it may be a requirement under 411.3.3 for the socket-outlet to have additional protection.

But I would check with the machines manufacturers as they may require it.

It’s wired straight into a motor starter?
