What is the hazard with Vestel UK Plugs in Various Televisions (2606-0078)?
Vestel UK Plugs in Various Televisions (2606-0078) was announced earlier this year, in the "Electrical appliances and equipment - Plugs" category. The product presents a risk of fire as the plug’s fuse does not meet the dimensional 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, the plug may overheat and catch fire. 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.
