Risk Description

null The product poses a risk of electric shock and burns because:·        The cross-sectional area of the external and internal wires is too small and the wires can thus overheat.·        The accessible wires have only basic insulation and if they are damaged the live conductors can become accessible.·        The electrical insulation is not sufficient.·        The dimensions of the socket-outlet are not as required and it is possible to insert a single pin of a plug leaving the other live pin accessible.The product does not comply with the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60598.
