The hazard
The plug does not meet the dimensional requirements and therefore cannot make a secure connection with the socket. This could cause the product to arc or spark during use, leading to a fire. Furthermore, the product is not protected against moisture, despite being recommended for outdoor use. Consequently, the user could touch accessible live parts or water could penetrate the product and cause an electric shock. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive.
