Live parts can become accessible when the lamps are being replaced or if they break. Also, the wires inside the lamp sockets can easily twist and short-circuit. A user may receive an electric shock. Furthermore, connections between the lamp holders and the lamp heads may be too tight, which can cause overheating; therefore, a user may suffer burns. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive nor with the relevant European standard EN 60598.
