Users sued Sharp TV for serious safety hazards

Mr. Xue, an engineer working in Beijing's Zhongguancun, said that two sharp-selling TVs purchased online by the company were tested by a third-party testing agency recognized by the state as being "injury-free" and judged to be unqualified. As a result of the return of goods, Sharp ordered Yantai Fidelity Precision Electronics Co., Ltd., a Sharp TV maker, to appeal to the court and demand refunds of TV charges and inspections. A few days ago, Beijing Chaoyang Court accepted the case.

The plaintiff, Mr. Xue, purchased a Sharp LCD-50NX100A (hereinafter referred to as 50-inch) TV set for 2,999 yuan on July 21, 2017 at the Jingdong website for the renovation of the new house. The price was 1988 on August 2. Yuan Sharp LCD-45SF460A TV (hereinafter referred to as 45 inch) one.

After Mr. Xue bought the home, he inadvertently noticed that there was a noticeable depression under one of the TV's back cover plate. He thought it was a fixed screw. After unveiling the nameplate, he found that there was no screw in the depression, but an obvious one. The hole, using a household electric pen test found that this hole has a voltage of 220V.

Mr. Xue contacted a national-recognized third-party agency, Shenzhen Xinxuan Standard Technical Service Co., Ltd., and tested the security of the two TV sets. The results showed that according to the national mandatory standard GB 8898-2011 "Safety Requirements for Audio, Video and Similar Electronic Equipment," both "Test Reports" were "unqualified." Among them, Sharp 50-inch TVs are in danger of electric shock, and 45-inch TVs may be subject to high-voltage spikes when the grid voltage is unstable. At this time, people touching the metal part of the TV may get an electric shock and have a life-threatening situation.

Mr. Xue believes that if there is a child at home, a small hole may have fatal consequences. To this end, Mr. Xue decided to formally sue Sharp, and on October 11, 2017, he formally filed a lawsuit with the People's Court of Chaoyang District of Beijing and was officially accepted by the court.
