Hazard

The disposition and size of the live pins do not meet the dimensional requirements of the relevant standard and will not fit fully into a wall socket. This means the live pins are exposed and users could potentially touch live parts when unplugging, or plugging in, the plug from a socket. The product does not meet the requirements of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016.
