What is this? This is about some electric kettles, including travel folding ones. They have a bad design in the power cord. The cord does not connect to the ground wire like it should.
What's happening? Because of this, the kettle might not be safe. If the cord or kettle breaks, the metal part could give you an electric shock.
Does this affect me? Yes, if you have one of these kettles in Germany or Luxembourg. The problem is with the way the cord is made.
What should I do? Stop using the kettle right away. Ask a repair person or electrician to check it. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you feel a shock.
