Hazard: The products present a high risk of electric shock as the product is 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. The sample had not been accompanied by adequate instructions and safety information in a language easily understood by consumers and other end-users.
Corrective Action: Destruction of the product at the border.
