CPSC, Firms Announce Recall of On/Off Switches for Rope and Cable Lights

CPSC · 01127a · published 2001-04-18

CPSC campaign 01127a

Hazard

If the cable lights are plugged in, even if the lights are not lit, the recalled switch on the power cord could allow the cable lights to remain energized. This poses a potential electric shock hazard to consumers.

Remedy

Consumers should not install the power switch supplied with the cable lights. If the switch is already installed, stop using the lights immediately and unplug them. Consumers that have cable lights with on/off switches installed should call Light Tech to receive a free replacement power cord.
