Storage batteries (which are usually lead-acid or alkali) present an
explosive hazard in addition to a shock danger because they can produce explosive gases,
including hydrogen, if they are overcharged. These explosive gases must not accumulate in quantities that may form an explosive mixture with air. A spark or open flame could ignite the mixture and cause an explosion. To prevent this accumulation, good ventilation must be provided. Continue to the next page to see how much you remember. |
