Hazard

The product presents a risk of electric shock as it contains accessible metal parts that were separated from live parts only by basic insulation. As the product has no earthing connected to it, the consumer may touch the live part of the appliance and can receive an electric shock. The product has also not been marked with the required conformity assessment markings, and it did not contain adequate safety information to ensure the correct and safe and installation of the product. The product therefore does not comply with the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016.
