Danger Battery Charging Area Signs help you warn staff, contractors and visitors before they enter battery charging bays, reducing confusion around charging hazards.
Danger Battery Charging Area Signs warn you, your staff and contractors that batteries are being charged nearby. Used around forklift charging bays, workshops, stores and maintenance rooms, they highlight W026 hazards before people touch equipment or enter the working area.
Where Danger Battery Charging Area Signs Should Be Fitted
You should install this sign at battery charging bay entrances, beside chargers, on charging cupboards and on doors leading into maintenance rooms. Place it before the hazard, not after it, so people see the warning before handling batteries, leads or nearby equipment.
Practical Viewing Distance Guidance for Battery Charging Areas
Choose the larger size when the sign must be seen across a workshop or vehicle route, and the smaller size for door or cupboard mounting. Keep the sign at eye level where possible and avoid placing it behind parked trucks, shelving or charger cables.
| Size | Best viewing use | Practical distance |
|---|---|---|
| H 297 x W 210 mm | Doors, cupboards, close approach points | Up to 5 metres |
