Why this product was flagged
Recorded hazard
The product presents a serious risk of electric shock as the plastic control enclosure has poor mechanical strength, potentially exposing live parts if the product is dropped or trodden on. Also, the minimum creepage and clearance between live and neutral on the control PCB tracks are less than 1 mm. The minimum requirements are 1.5 mm clearance and 2.5 mm creepage. The plug cable has no support from a cable clamp and the fuse had the incorrect rating. No instructions were provided with the product and some of the required documentation and markings were missing.
