Reason the product is recalled
The cables have failed some of the required ageing tests of AS/NZS 5000.2. The insulation could become prematurely brittle with age. If the insulation becomes brittle and the cables are disturbed, the insulation could break and expose live conductors, resulting in possible electric shock or fires.
The circuit breaker and RCD do not pose a safety risk, however these components are not approved for sale in Australia.
