The cross section area of the conductor is less than required, the insulation is of poor quality and the construction of the plug is non-standardized. The plastic parts of the lamp holders do not have sufficient resistance to ignition therefore they may cause fire. These products do not comply with the LVD Directive and the European Standards.
