Details
Table lamp with timer system and black power supply cord.
The product presents a serious risk of fire as the mains plug was not fitted with a fuse link which conforms to BS 1362. If a fault were to occur with the product, there is insufficient earthing and therefore the plug could explode from the wall, causing a fire. There was also a single insulation mains potential wire in contact with unearthed accessible conductive parts, presenting an electric shock hazard. Some of the required documentation and markings were not present.
The product does not meet the requirements of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016 or the Plugs & Sockets (Safety) Regulations 1994.
