What is this? This is a plug adapter that can fit many types of plugs. It may let you plug in devices safely, but it has a serious problem.

What's happening? The adapter can let you touch live metal parts while plugging in. It also has no safety earth wire, which makes electric shocks more likely.

Does this affect me? If you use this adapter in France, you could get an electric shock while plugging in a device.

What should I do? Stop using it right away. Ask a shop or an electrician for a safer adapter. Talk to your doctor if you feel a shock.
