What is the danger

Product (1) poses a risk of electric shock and fire because: - the night-light is fitted with a non-compliant bulb-holder, - the bulb can be changed while the mains socket-mounted night-light is connected to the mains supply, which is not permissible, - the mains socket-mounted night light is fitted with non-compliant plug pins. Product (2) poses a risk of electric shock and fire because: - the cover, which is intended to prevent access to the bulb-holder and other live internal parts, can easily be removed without using tools, therefore protection against electric shock cannot be guaranteed - the night-light is fitted with a non-compliant bulb-holder, - the bulb can be changed while the mains socket-mounted night light is connected to the mains supply, which is not permissible, - the mains socket-mounted night light is fitted with non-compliant plug pins.
