The Gpengkj plastic USB charger (model GP-LJ982B, barcode 8901802709820) with three USB Type‑A output ports, originating from the People’s Republic of China, is affected. It was withdrawn because it lacks adequate insulation between primary and secondary circuits, so the USB ports and a connected cable can become live under mains voltage and may give an electric shock; it does not comply with the Low Voltage Directive or EN 60335‑1. Action: compulsory product withdrawal from the market (distributor).
