Apple have issued an urgent recall of AC wall plug adaptors which were sold in Ireland as they may pose a risk of electrical shock.
The three-prong plugs were sold with Mac computer and mobile devices between 2003 and 2010, as well as part of the Apple World Travel Adaptor Kit.
They are mainly used in Ireland, the UK and Singapore.

In a blog post, the company said there is a chance the plugs can break and cause a risk of electrical shock if touched.
A spokesman said: "An affected three-prong plug adaptor is white, with no letters on the inside slot where it attaches to the main Apple power adaptor.
