Author Topic: Fluke Test Wire Recall Kyle Watkins Expert Film Handler Posts: 185 From: Stuart, FL, USA Registered: Sep 2001 posted 05-03-2004 09:29 PM                     Saw this on the news. Test Wire Recall May 3, 2004 - 9:42PM Faulty test wires are being recalled because they could lead to an electrocution. The Fluke Corporation is recalling 110,000 thousand test wires. They could cause voltage meters to give false readings that wires aren't carrying an electrical current. That malfunction could lead to shock or electrocution. The recalled components are red and black and have the Fluke logo on the connector ends. If you have one, stop using it and call 1-888-401-9940 for a free replacement.  |  IP: Logged Rick Long Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 759 From: Toronto, Ontario, Canada Registered: Nov 1999 posted 05-03-2004 11:06 PM                     Thanks, Kyle.  |  IP: Logged Dave Macaulay Film God Posts: 2321 From: Toronto, Canada Registered: Apr 2001 posted 05-05-2004 10:08 AM                     Here's a link to identify the probes affected, the contact numbers only apply in Canada though - other countries just follow through the main fluke.com page. http://ca.fluke.com/caen/support/safetynote/testleadrecall.htm  |  IP: Logged
