HeatCo, LLC in cooperation with CPSC, is voluntarily recalling Heath/Zenith and WirelessCommand motion sensing wall switches. When the units are in auto mode and the light is off, some leakage passes through to the socket. If the consumer fails to disconnect the power at the circuit break, there is a risk of electric shock.
To date, there have been no incidents reported associated with this recall.
