In October 2013, Schneider Electric recalled 15 million of its SurgeArrest surge-protectors 3 . The models recalled were the series APC 7 and APC 8 (manufactured before 2003.) The company warned at that time that the surge protectors could overheat, smoke, and start a fire. These surge protectors were manufactured before 2003; between the date of manufacture (pre-2003) and the date of recall (2013), the company received over 700 reports of overheating and melting, 13 reports of injuries, and 55 reports of property damage including a house fire ($916.000 in damages) and a medical facility fire ( $750.000 in damages.) The units that were recalled were sold for between $13 and $50. If consumers contact the company, they can get their surge protectors replaced. Requirements: 1. What is ethics?
