⚠️ Risk

The product poses a risk of electric shock because: - insulation between the parts connected to the mains and the secondary parts (output), which can be touched, is not sufficient, - clearances/creepage distances between the primary and the secondary windings are 0.5 mm instead of the required 4 mm/5 mm, - there are no insulation tubes on the output wires. The product does not comply with the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60950.
