Power cable not returned for investigation.Investigation carried out on information and images provided by olympus (b)(4).The images show the plug pins are discoloured and bent, consistent with the plug not being fully inserted into the power socket / workstation being manoeuvred whilst plugged into the power socket.The instructions for use contain warning notes instructing the user to take the necessary steps to avoid the cable becoming taut, both to avoid damage to the mains cable or plug (and to avoid creating a trip hazard).This will be submitted as the final report, however if any new information is provided the complaint will be re-opened.No report of injury to patient nor user.This report is submitted in an abundance of caution.
