What happened

A Waterfall Picture brand fluorescent luminaire (model 289304) has been recalled due to a safety defect in its cord anchorage. The flexible cord's connection is unreliable, which can cause internal electrical conductors to become loose and create contact between live electrical parts and a metal fastening screw that is accessible from outside the fixture. This noncompliance with European electrical safety standards and directives poses an electrical hazard to users.

The product is a mirror-fronted wall luminaire featuring a waterfall image on the front and brown backing, measuring 65 cm x 45 cm x 7 cm, and is sold in a white cardboard package. The recall was issued by Finnish authorities. The source document does not specify what action affected consumers should take in response to this recall.
