Hazard

The product presents a serious risk of electric shock as the product’s plug does not meet the dimensional requirements of BS 1363 because it featured a non-BS1363 ‘Clover’ plug. Due to there being less than 9.5 mm between the edge of the live pin and the side of the plug face, the plug presents a hazard of electric shock when it is inserted or removed from a socket. There was also no fuse fitted to the plug. This product does not meet the requirements of the Plugs and Sockets etc. (Safety) Regulations 1994.
