Why it's dangerous
Electric shockFire
The plug fuse has insufficient granular filler and therefore does not meet requirements. If a fault occurs, without granular filler the plug may overheat and ignite, causing a fire. The product also has accessible metal parts which can become live during use. Consequently, the user can receive an electric shock.
The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive.
