If you cannot locate the serial number on your clamp meter, or if the serial number is illegible, please check the back of the clamp meter to find the country of origin molded into the battery door. If it says “Assembled in Malaysia” or “Assembled in Singapore” you should consider the clamp meter an ‘Affected Product.’

Location of “country of origin” information

All related models shipped from Fluke after 1/1/2021 and with serial numbers not included in the table above are NOT impacted by this recall.

Description of safety issue

It has been determined that certain 902 FC Clamp Meters may contain a manufacturing error such that a safety protection component may be rendered inoperable. Because of this, there may be severely limited or even no protection provided against arc explosion, burns, or electric shock if hazardous voltage is applied to the terminals while in rotary switch positions not rated for the voltage. These rotary switch positions include the Ω (Ohms), µA (microamperes), temperature, and capacitance rotary switch positions for the 902 FC. It is considered foreseeable misuse to apply a mains voltage to the terminals while in any of these product functions. The probability and extent of injury increases as the voltage and prospective short circuit current of the electrical installation increases.
