Batteries contain caustic acids and toxic materials and can rupture or leak if mistreated. 

Remove rings and metal wristwatches or other metal objects and jewelry. 

Do not carry metal objects in your pockets where the objects can fall onto the battery.

 

 

9.3.2  Tools must have insulated handles and must be insulated so that they will not short battery terminals. 

Do not allow a tool to short between individual or separate battery terminals or to the UPS cabinet.   

Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of the battery, and do not lay them where they could fall onto the battery or into the 

UPS cabinet.

 

 

9.3.3  When connecting cables, never allow a cable to short across a battery’s terminals, or to the UPS cabinet.

 

 

9.3.4.  Align the cables on the battery terminals so that the cable lug will not contact any part of the UPS cabinet.    Keep the cable 

away from any sharp metal edges. 

 

9.3.5  Install the battery cables in such a way that the UPS battery mounting bracket cannot pinch them. 

 

9.3.6  Do not connect the battery terminal to Ground. 

If any battery terminal is inadvertently grounded, remove the source of the ground. 

Contacting any part of a grounded battery can cause a risk of electric shock.
