Hurt, care not known Made Sep 9, 2019, sent to the company Sep 26, 2019, published by CPSC Oct 10, 2019
The product, in the report: Plug-in power strip: three receptacles with a 1- ft cord. Color: White Rating: Max:13A 125VAC 60Hz.
The product is a plug-in electrical power strip.
While using this product, I received a shock from the equipment I plugged in to it.
When I checked the plug polarity with a digital multimeter, I confirmed that the plug polarity is reversed.
(According to US standards, only one certain prong of a plug is supposed to be used for the “grounded” conductor. This product’s wiring and plug polarity is reversed, so that the “grounded” prong is crossed to the “non-grounded” wire, and vice-versa.)
