“The power cord may detach where it meets the inline switch, exposing live wires,” the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) said.
“There is a risk of serious injury or death from electric shock or electrocution. Electric shock incidents associated with this defect have occurred.

“Consumers should immediately stop using the product, disconnect from mains power and cut the cord safely.”
The lamp had been sold both in-store and online around the country.
People who own the lamp have been advised to return it to the nearest Kmart or Khub store for a refund or exchange.
