Amprobe Recalls Clamp Meters Due to Shock Hazard

Reported: March 15, 2007 Initiated: March 15, 2007 #07130

Product Description

Only Amprobe brand digital clamp meter models ACD-10PRO, ACD-10 TRMS-PRO, ACD-14 and ACD-14TRMS, except those model numbers followed by "FX" or "PLUS," are included in the recall. "Amprobe" and the model numbers are printed on the front of the units. These clamp meters measure 0 to 600 volts alternating current (VAC), and 0 to 600 volts direct current (VDC). In addition, they measure 0 to 400 amps alternating current. The tester body is red and gray and measures 7-1/2 inches in length by 2-1/2 inches in width by 1-1/4 inches thick.

Reason for Recall

The meters can fail to give an appropriate voltage reading, resulting in the operator believing the electrical power is off, which can pose a risk of shock, electrocution, or thermal burn hazard.

Remedy

Consumers should stop using these recalled clamp meters immediately and contact Amprobe for a free replacement clamp meter.
