- The products present a high risk of electric shock as the products are inadequately earthed and of inadequate size which caused the earthing wire to overheat and melt the insulation. The plug also failed to comply with BS1363-1 as the earthing pins had less than 3.9 mm thickness, which is below the minimum required.
- What to do
- Destruction of the product at the border
