Some are, some aren't.

It'll be a regular switch but off a 45a cable on its own circuit

Hobs with 13A plugs have software that limits the total power draw to 3000W, so if you turn one ring up high it will automatically turn down the others (if it needs to). How annoying you find this depends on what you cook.
Annoyingly they generally only come as separate models rather than something you can disable if you decide to install it properly later.

My previous induction hob had its own fused isolator with a big heavy switch. To be fair I don't recall whether it had its own circuit on the CU, or if it was shared with the oven.
I don't see how hobs are plugged into regular sockets, based on the one I had which was rated at over 30amps.
