Why this product was flagged
Recorded hazard
This product presents a high risk of fire because the item has been sheathed with a ISOD (Insulated Shutter Operating Device). The plastic collar can catch on and damage the socket contact, meaning over time, the socket is damaged by the earth pin. This can cause the plug/socket to overheat and ignite, causing a fire.
