Safety notice and recall

In co-operation with the US Consumer Protection Safety Commission, Fluke is voluntarily recalling the TL221, TL222 and TL224 modular test leads. Users are asked to send back test leads for replacement. This recall does not affect the test leads permanently attached to test probes that come standard with most Fluke Digital Multimeters. The recall does not include currently manufactured TL221, TL222 and TL224 test leads that are marked with a SureGrip symbol, either by a tag around the silicon wire, or the symbol moulded onto the connector end.

The recall only impacts test leads TL221, TL222, and TL224. They are found in the following accessories: TL220, TL223, TLK220, TLK225 and L215.

The affected leads are also included with the following Fluke equipment with serial numbers between 83260001 and 85210001: Fluke 179/1AC, Fluke 179/EDA, Fluke 88, Fluke 741B, Fluke 743B, Fluke 744.

TL221, TL222 and TL224 test leads, manufactured between December 2002 and October 2003, may have a faulty connection that could cause the tester to not indicate that voltage or current is present.
