Contra · Cord extension set
The product poses a serious risk of electric shock because the cross-sectional areas of the wires of the cord extension set do not meet the requirements: the cross-sectional area of the protective safety earth wire (green-yellow wire) is only about 0,2 mm². Therefore, the protective safety earth wire of the cord extension set may break in case of a fault condition occurred in a product connected to the extension cord set. In this case the protective safety earthing does not work and it causes a risk of electric shock. The product does not comply with the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant standards.
