Hazard

The electrical insulation of the adaptor is inadequate. The internal connections are not sufficient and rely upon solder to maintain their position; a loose wire could reduce creepage distances and clearances. The adaptor pins are inadequately sized which could cause damage to the socket and the adaptor, resulting in live parts being exposed and overheating or arcing within the socket leading to a risk of fire.The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive, the relevant European standard EN 61558 and the relevant national standard BS1363.
