What the authority reported
The product presents a risk of fire as the plug pins did not meet the dimensional requirements of BS 1363, as the height of the live and neutral pin sleeves exceeded the maximum. This could damage or weaken the contacts in the socket. When a different plug is inserted to that socket it may not make satisfactory contact and cause arcing or sparking, leading to a risk of fire. The product does not meet the requirements of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016 or the Plugs & Sockets etc. (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.
