Description
Lighting chain "Polen Max" consisting of 60 series-parallel connected globular incandescent lamps with resistor bridge. Name: "60 perlowych kuleczek music". Type/model: Unknown.
Risk
This product presents the risk of electric shock because: the insulation of the wire is poor, the cross section area of the wires is less than required, the cord anchorage is missing, the cable inlet of the flashing/sound generating unit is not rounded, the plug is non-standardized and the construction of the plug makes it possible to insert the plug partially into the socket. The plastic parts of the lamp holders do not resist to ignition sufficiently, so it may entail risk of fire. This product does not comply with the LVD Directive and the European Standard.
