A loose wire could reduce creepage distances and clearances.·         The adaptor has inadequately sized pins which could cause damage to the socket or the adaptor.The product does not comply with the Low Voltage Directive (LVD), the relevant European standard EN 60950, and the relevant national standard BS1363.
