Hello all! I wanna get a universal socket switch from Taobao, but my friend's like, "Nah, don't do it man. The socket switch from Taobao doesn't have SIRIM approve, so if something goes wrong at your house like a fire or something, your insurance company could just say nope to your claim." Is that for real though?
I checked out some socket switches on Shopee, but the designs don't look as good as the ones on Taobao. Can y'all hook me up with some suggestions?

After I emailed Schneider to ask about international and universal sockets, they informed me that these products are considered non-compliant and therefore do not require SIRIM. However, if a fire were to occur in my house and my insurance company denied my claim due to my use of a non-SIRIM product, it would be similar to purchasing a socket from Taobao. In both cases, using a non-compliant product could potentially lead to complications with insurance claims.
