Moreover, the structure of the cord extension socket allows single-pole insertion of plugs and the dimensions of the connection plug are incorrect. The product is not protected against moisture although it is recommended for outdoor use. Consequently, the water could penetrate the product or the user could touch accessible live parts and receive an electric shock.
