Risk
Due to improper construction of the cord anchorage the connection cord can be pushed inside the luminaire where the external insulation of the cord can get into contact with hot surfaces of the lamp. The connection cord is not properly fixed, thus the cord may get into contact with sharp edges and may be damaged and if live parts are accessible electric shock might occur.
