Hans, The obvious problem with the following is in the special appliance coupler. It allows a class I product to be connected without an earth. An IEC320 double insulated coupler has only two pins and can not be connected to a Class I product. A coupler which can be connected to a class I product but not connect the earth can cause a hazard.
