This comparison covers 2 official alert references, including smoothie blender, electric grill pan, published from 2019-05-31 to 2026-08-07. The recorded risks raise separate evidence questions about insulation. Compare the product features and dated findings below before scoping an investigation. These historical observations do not determine your product’s compliance or a market failure rate.

Smoothie blender · SR/02160/26
Report published 2026-08-07 · notifying country Slovakia · reported origin Poland
Reported product description
Blender designed for mixing and blending food, powered via a permanently attached power cord. The blender's body is made of a combination of metal and grey-and-black plastic [1]
Reported risk explanation
Due to inadequate design and inadequate insulation, the metal part of the blender can become live. Moreover, the product is not sufficiently protected against moisture. The user could therefore access live parts and receive an electric shock. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive nor with the European standards EN 60335-1 and EN 60335-2-14. [1]

Report published 2019-05-31 · notifying country United Kingdom · reported origin Unknown
Reported product description
Red plastic double sided electric copper ceramic infused non- stick grill pan. The product was sold online, in particular via eBAY. [2]
Reported risk explanation
Insulation between the mains connection and the conductive hot plate is insufficient. Consequently the hot plate could become live, leading to the user receiving an electric shock if inadvertently touched.The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60335. [2]

Label combinations are source facts within one comparison; they do not create separate guides with identical preparation tasks.
Electric shock: 2 recorded references
Source selection, exclusions and calculation method
Filter the acquired, completely parsed English weekly XML releases. Deduplicate official alert references. Group by product category and the complete set of conditional evidence-question topics supported by actual risk text. Risk-label combinations remain recorded cohort facets and do not create buyer intents. Brand, product name, model, origin, notifying country, measurement-only changes and different wording of the same questions do not create intents. Unrecognized mechanisms stay internal for enrichment. Count report years and notifying countries deterministically. Display at most eight newest descriptions with at least 40 characters after whitespace normalization, nonempty reported measures and distinct casefolded descriptions; break date ties by official identifier. All cohort records count even if their description is shorter or not displayed. This is not a representative sample. Counts concern this acquired corpus only.
One acquired version per official public alert reference. Display at most eight newest distinct product descriptions whose normalized whitespace-collapsed text contains at least 40 characters and has nonempty reported measures; ties sort by official identifier. The complete cohort includes shorter descriptions. This is an explicit display selection, not a representative sample.
2 distinct descriptions displayed; 0 cohort records not displayed. Missing fields: {}.
These are selected, dated enforcement observations in the acquired weekly reports, not a random market sample, market-wide failure rate, proof of current product status, or a determination about your product. Notification country is not a complete sales-market or jurisdiction-coverage field. A quoted legal/standard reference is the report’s statement, not independently verified current law or a mandatory test panel.

Turn the reported failure mechanism into a scoped investigation
Use this checklist to gather your business or product details before speaking with a specialist. The items below explain what to record and suggest useful supporting documents. You can add your own answers in the editable project brief.
Power-supply insulation boundaries — what evidence do we have?
If your product uses a mains supply or adapter, identify the actual power-supply architecture, insulation boundaries and accessible parts. Ask a qualified specialist which design evidence and investigation would address the reported shock mechanism for this configuration. No medical-device standard or pass/fail limit is selected from this alert.
Useful evidence: Schematics, adapter/component specifications, ratings, insulation/protection design and configuration-specific existing test evidence.
Can we trace the affected component, formula or design revision across our supplied products?
Compare the reported descriptions with your own identifiers and change records. Treat missing or “Unknown” source fields as unresolved; they do not establish that no action was needed.
Useful evidence: Product identifiers, revision history, supplier/batch traceability and market/operator records.
Who would own an evidence review and any resulting corrective-action decision?
Read the reported measures as historical observations. Establish your own operator roles, sector-specific rules, decision owner and communication responsibilities before adopting another case’s response.
Conditional: Product-risk evidence and operator-role review — Compare the recorded product features and failure mechanism with your product. Confirm the applicable product regime, deciding evidence, operator responsibilities and justified next steps. This does not assume that GPSR or a representative appointment applies to every alert category.
Questions for providers
Which specific product features and reported risk mechanism make these cases relevant or irrelevant to our product?
What current legal, standards or scientific sources support your proposed investigation criteria, and what cannot be concluded from these dated alerts?
Which existing evidence can answer the risk question, what additional work is justified, and who owns any resulting corrective-action decision?
