What happened

The LUCERNA cord extension set (model FX 3-10m, art. no. OY-2191x10 4FA) poses serious risks of electric shock and fire due to multiple safety defects. During testing, the moving cable detached and conductors were cut off, the flexible cable has insufficient diameter at 0.86 mm², the material lacks adequate insulating properties that can be damaged under certain circumstances, and when tested with a burning wire, flames persisted for longer than 30 seconds after removal. The product does not comply with the Low Voltage Directive and relevant safety standards.

The distributor has voluntarily withdrawn the product from the market and initiated a consumer recall. The product can be identified by its transparent plastic bag packaging with a paper label displaying the LUCERNA trademark, model number, article number 8590849370003, CE mark, and distributor information. The source document does not specify what remedy affected consumers should pursue.
