Hazard

The cable lacks a cable strain relief and, therefore, is not properly anchored. Moreover, the dimensions of the connection plug and socket are incorrect, and the accessible wires have inadequate insulation. The user could touch accessible live parts, which may cause an electric shock. The product is not protected against moisture, although it is recommended for outdoor use. Consequently, water could penetrate the product, or the user could touch accessible live parts, which may cause an electric shock. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive nor with the European standard EN 60598.
