What is the danger
This product poses a serious risk of electric shock because: - the internal wiring inside the lamp bracket gets into contact with the sharp ends of the flexible tube protruding into the wireway, - the protecting tube, which is applied instead of the hard bushing, is not fixed, - the Hungarian instructions for use include incorrect translation of the English version (according to the English version in case of a product of Class II “the fitting is double insulated and must not be connected to an earth”, while the Hungarian text states that such a product is provided with double-insulated earth wire). This product does not comply with the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standards.
