Changing the plug/connector should generally never be an issue.

For instance, UL takes no definitve position that any field modification would "void" a listing. According to their website:
"It is the responsibility of the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) to determine the acceptability of the modification or if the modifications are significant enough to require one of UL's Field Engineering Services staff members to evaluate the modified product." http://www.ul.com/regulators/modification.cfm
