What is this? A Eurolite brand electronic transformer that changes 230 V power to 24 V power for lights. It is used in homes and small businesses.

What's happening? The transformer’s safety insulation is poor. Metal parts that should stay safe can become live with electricity. This can give a dangerous electric shock.

Does this affect me? Only if you own or use this transformer in Finland. It was sold under the Eurolite brand.

What should I do? Stop using it right away. Ask a qualified electrician or your local store for advice before you plug it in again.
