Chicken Water Heater

The electronics inside the product are not sufficiently insulated. Open water containers (poultry drinking bowls) are placed on the product. Water could therefore be spilled on and penetrate the product. Additionally, the housing is made of metal, and there is no earth conductor. Therefore, a short circuit could occur, making the housing live. The user can touch the live parts and receive an electric shock. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive nor with the European standard EN 60335-1.
