What is the danger
The product poses a risk of electric shock because when the plug-in transformer is unplugged, it is possible to touch live pins. This is the result of the fact that a number of housings from the delivery batch 2007 had hairline cracks and material faults. The product does not comply with the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard.
