What the authority reported
The product presents a serious risk as it is poorly constructed with insufficient creepage and clearances. Over time, the poor quality connections could break down, causing the product to arc and ignite. The product also failed the electrical strength test, and the plug did not meet the dimensional requirements of the relevant standard, exposing users to live pins and an electric shock hazard. Improvements are required to marking, labelling and documentation. The product does not meet the requirements of the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 or the Plugs & Sockets (Safety) Regulations 1994.
What to do
Follow the instructions in the official notice — recall remedies (refund, repair, replacement, or disposal) are defined by the issuing authority and the responsible business, and they differ per recall. Do not rely on summaries, including this one.
