It identified issues with the fuses of certain power plugs in the TVs.

“The fuse inside the supplied UK power plug may not operate correctly,” the CCPC said.

If an electrical fault occurs, the fuse may fail to disconnect the power supply, allowing electricity to continue flowing into the TV, which could lead to overheating or fire.

The safety notice relates to the main plug fuse and not the TV unit itself.

About 6,206 products were affected in the Republic, the consumer authority said.

The CCPC also recalled 189 Nordmende TVs along similar lines.

Customers should stop using the product immediately, switch it off, and unplug it from the mains, it advised, and should contact electrical appliance distributor Glen Dimplex to obtain a free replacement fuse or power cable.

Glen Dimplex said the safety notice was precautionary and no incidents had been reported.

The CCPC has issued full lists of the retailers that have stocked the select televisions.

Glen Dimplex said the TVs were safe to use.

"This is a precautionary action. The TV itself has multiple built-in safety features designed to protect against electrical faults. The issue we're addressing is only the plug fuse, which is an additional layer of protection."

James Walsh, owner of M-Tech Group, a Cork technology installation company, said recalls typically occurred when the possibility of litigation or serious threats to health and safety arose.

Mr Walsh said while the product safety notice of Toshiba, Technika and Walker TVs stretched across three different brands, all TVs were likely produced in the same factory where the common fault transferred across different models.

“It's like if you were building an engine… say if you're a Volkswagen, a Mercedes, and a Toyota, but they might all have the same fan belt, so there's some element inside in those TVs that's common across all three, and that has caused a problem somewhere,” Mr Walsh said.
