Summary
The clearance and creepage distances between the primary and secondary circuits are inadequate. The user has therefore access to live parts and could receive an electric shock. Moreover, the circuit board does not have the necessary flame retardants and can therefore cause a fire. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive nor with the European standard EN 62368-1.
A Safety Gate alert means that national authorities found a serious or relevant risk and took measures. The same product may also be sold under other names or online.
