Hazard

The live parts of the product become accessible during use. Moreover, there are no safety shutters, so when a plug is partially inserted, it can easily contact live parts. The user could touch these live parts and receive an electric shock. In addition, the adaptor does not maintain an earth connection, risking electric shock with appliances requiring earthing. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive.

Measures taken

  • Recall of the product from end users — Distributor (27/09/2024)

Product description
