What is the hazard with Steam Cleaner, YX-602 (2608-0174)?
Steam Cleaner, YX-602 (2608-0174) was announced earlier this year, in the "Electrical appliances and equipment - Steam Cleaners" category. The product presents a serious risk of fire as the plug fuse has insufficient granular filler and therefore does not meet the requirements of BS 1362. A compliant, correctly rated fuse is required to ensure the safe operation of the product under fault conditions. Should a fault occur, without granular filler the plug may overheat and ignite, causing a fire. The product also presents a risk of electric shock as accessible metal parts can become live during use. The product does not meet the requirements of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016 or the Plugs & 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.
