Hazard
The product poses a high risk of electric shock as there is poor insulation and inadequate creepage and clearance. There was also no triple insulation wire used in the transformer. Electrical insulation between mains / accessible parts may degrade over time as creepage & clearances distances are insufficient (measured 0.6mm). The product also failed the electric strength test at 3000V and was not supplied with all of the required documentations and markings.
The product does not comply with the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016.
