Nokia recalls 30,000 chargers for Lumia 2520 tablet

Finnish telecom company Nokia on Thursday recalled 30,000 chargers for its Lumia 2520 tablet due to risk it could give customers an electric shock.

The AC-300 charger, manufactured by a third-party supplier, was sold in Austria, Britain, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Russia, Switzerland and the US.

The Lumia 2520 is the first tablet by Nokia, once the world leader in the mobile phone industry but which lost its top place to South Korea's Samsung in 2012.

"The plastic cover of the charger's exchangeable plug could come loose and separate," the company said in a statement.

"If loose and separated, certain internal components pose a hazard of an electric shock if touched while the plug remains in a live socket." ..
