What an electrical hazard sign does not replace

It warns; it does not isolate. Electrical risk is controlled by de-energising, proving dead, locking out and tagging out, guarding live parts, and restricting the work to licensed people. A sign sits on top of all of that as the notice to everyone else. Two places it earns its keep: on the outside of a switchroom or enclosure, where someone who has no idea what is behind the door needs to be told before they open it; and on temporary site power, where the risk moves as the job moves and people stop expecting it. Mount it on the enclosure itself rather than nearby, so it cannot be separated from the hazard it describes. And keep it current - a sign left on a decommissioned board is worse than no sign, because it trains people that the warning may not mean anything.

Common uses

Switchboards and distribution boards, switchrooms and plant rooms, temporary construction power, generator and battery installations, and maintenance areas with exposed conductors. Pair it with Authorised Personnel Only on the room door or a low voltage rescue hook where rescue equipment is required, or browse more fire and safety equipment at MediBC.
