No one hurt Made Oct 5, 2011, sent to the company Oct 17, 2011, published by CPSC Nov 7, 2011
The product, in the report: Clamp-on Ammeter/multimeter. It is utilized to measure electrical tension (voltage) and current. It is also utilized to measure electrical resistivity (as an ohmmeter). It bears the certification logo cUL US. It is about 8 inches tall by 3.5 inches large by 1.75 inch deep. It is green, with a yellow jaw, to clamon a wire to sense its electrical current. It is the same as your report: http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/prerel/prhtml02/02218.html
We had a faulty testing panel, no voltage output. So one of our electrician open up the panel and tested the voltage at the input of the panel, no voltage. He was to try to go by hand checking the connections. I told him not doing so and asked him if he is sure is tester is good. He told me yes, he worked with it all day long. I told him to try with another tester, just to make sure. So he did, and there was 600V at theis point. His tester was faulty.
The capacity at this point is a 600V / 1200A feeder. If he has touch this with his tools, this would have been desastrous.
I called Greenlee, and they told me they have a recall on this model number for this same problem, but the serial number of our machine is not part of the recall.
So the only recommendation they gave me is to report this incident to cpsc.gov.
