Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Extech has recalled digital clamp meters with model numbers EX650, EX655, MA160, MA61, and MA63 that have serial numbers ranging from R15XXXXXXX to R17XXXXXXX. These AC/DC clamp meters are green and orange electrical testing devices used to measure voltage, resistance, capacitance, frequency, temperature, continuity, and diode readings. The meters can fail to provide accurate voltage readings, which may cause users to incorrectly believe electrical power is low or off, creating an electrocution hazard.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled digital clamp meters and contact Extech for a free replacement meter. The model number and Extech logo are printed on the front of the unit, and the serial number appears on the back.
