Does any now the EU requirements on battery charging areas/rooms for forklifts, regarding location (inside, outside facility), ventilation, OSHA, signs,...?

 

Kind regards,

Specific requirements / interpretations may well vary between countries even within the EU, IME, so you may want to discuss with the local equivalent of the Health & Safety Executive in the country/countries in which the sites are located.

There is a brief summary of the UK view in these links:

Obviously it also goes without saying that this shouldn't be done in a food production area... ;)

Hi,

 

IMO this is (legally) regulated on national level, not on EU level.
