Why it's dangerous
The plug does not meet the dimensional requirements. The distance between the outer edge of the plug and the live pin is insufficient, and the earth and live pins are too short. As a result, the plug may not connect securely to a socket, potentially exposing live parts to the user. Moreover, the plug also does not have the capacity for a fuse, which is required to ensure the safe operation of the product under fault conditions. Users may receive an electric shock.
