Hazard

The protection against accidental loosening of lamp's casing is inadequate, the cross-sectional area of the wires is too thin, the wires pass through sharp metal parts and could become damaged due to insufficient protection of the insulating material, the wire is not secured against pulling, and the plug has inadequate dimensions. Live parts may become accessible, hence a user may receive an electric shock. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive nor with the European standard EN 60598-1.
