What is the danger
The product poses a risk of electric shock because: - the distance between the protective contacts (26.9 mm) was too small. In this case the contacts can bend after a certain amount of use, which means that the protective conductor function is no longer guaranteed, - in the heat resistance test, the plastic housing was so distorted that live parts (230 volts) could be touched. The product does not comply with the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard.
