What is the hazard with Guangdong Dousheng Electronics Co., Ltd 5W USB-C Power Adapter sold via Amazon (2604-0121)?
Guangdong Dousheng Electronics Co., Ltd 5W USB-C Power Adapter sold via Amazon (2604-0121) was announced earlier this year, in the "Electrical appliances and equipment - Chargers" category. The adapter presents a risk of fire because the plug does not meet the dimensional requirements of BS 1363 and has with excessive live and neutral pin sleeve dimensions and an undersized insulated shutter-opening device (ISOD) pin. This means the plug cannot make a secure connection to the socket, which may lead to it overheating and igniting, causing a fire. The product does not meet the requirements of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016 or the Plugs and Sockets etc. (Safety) Regulations 1994. That is the hazard as reported publicly by the firm and the regulator; it does not necessarily mean every unit has failed.
