Hazard
The product presents a serious risk of electric shock as there was insufficient creepage and clearance distances within the transformer. The plug pins were also too close to the edge of the plug, allowing the user to access live parts when plugging in, or unplugging, the plug from the socket. The product was also insufficiently earthed, as the fuse did not feature the required ballast.

The product also requires improvements to documentation and markings.

The product does not meet the requirements of the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 or the Plugs & Sockets (Safety) Regulations 1994.

Corrective action
The product is no longer available for sale.

We recommend owners stop using this product immediately. Contact the distributor you purchased from to request redress.
