Hazard

The product presents a serious risk as there are accessible metal parts separated from live parts only by basic insulation. If the insulation were to break down, the metal parts could become live and give the user an electric shock. The instructions were considered to be inadequate as they did not contain sufficient information to ensure the correct and safe use of the equipment. Some of the required documentation and markings were not present.

The product does not meet the requirements of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016.

Corrective action

The import has been rejected at the border.
