Daily snapshot data starts accumulating once the scheduler runs — for now this is interpolated from the agency's first/last dates.

What is this? This is a power socket that can plug in devices up to 2500 watts. It was made by HITRENDS or PABANCE.

What's happening? The power cord and sockets do not have a safety wire (earthing). If there is a short circuit, electricity can’t flow safely away. This raises the risk of electric shock.

Does this affect me? If you own or use this power socket in Germany, you could be at risk.

What should I do? Stop using it right away. Ask a shop or an electrician for help. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using any new electrical item.
