Unknown · Adaptor International (universal adaptor)

The plug pins do not have an appropriate insulating coating and the user could be exposed to dangerous voltage levels if s/he puts the plug in a socket. Moreover, it is possible for two sets of plug pins to be open at the same time. In this case, if one set of pins is plugged into a mains socket, the other set of pins will be live and accessible to the user. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 50075.
