Hazard
The product presents a high risk of fire as the plug pins on the product do not conform to BS1363 as they are too narrow. This means that the pins do not fit snuggly into the socket so if the product is used for an extended length of time, it will likely become hot and could cause a fire.
The product does not meet the requirements of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016 or the Plugs & Sockets etc. (Safety) Regulations 1994.
Corrective action
The import has been rejected at the border.
