Ensure use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) including self-contained breathing apparatuses to protect against hazardous air emissions. Set an isolation zone for large commercial
NFPA 70E Battery and Battery Room Requirements
Safety requirements for batteries and battery rooms can be found within Article 320 of NFPA 70E
Battery Room Ventilation and Safety
It is common knowledge that lead-acid batteries release hydrogen gas that can be potentially explosive. The battery rooms must be adequately ventilated to prohibit the build-up of hydrogen gas. During
3 Date
The battery rooms must be adequately ventilated to keep the concentration of hydrogen gas within safe limits, this is especially important for vented batteries.
