Hazard

The product poses a risk of electric shock, because it is possible to insert a plug with a higher rating than that indicated in a socket. The sockets on the adaptor are not recessed, meaning that one of the pins on a plug may still be accessible while the plug is live. The product does not comply with the relevant national standard UNE 20315.

Product description

Black plastic plug. Description of the packaging: The plug is packaged individually in a plastic blister pack. The word ‘City’ and the article number appear on the front of the packaging.
