Do you need to display Electrical Hazard Signs in your business?

Yes, you need to display electrical hazard signs such as shock warning signs, if there is a risk of injury or illness from electrical shock or other electrical hazards. The specific signs that you need to display will vary depending on the hazards present in your workplace. However, some common examples of an electrical sign include:

  • Danger High Voltage: This sign indicates that there is a high voltage hazard in the area. The sign may have a symbol of a lightning bolt and a skull and crossbones.
  • Warning Live Wires: This sign indicates that there are live wires in the area. The sign may have a symbol of a lightning bolt and a pair of hands.
  • Caution Electrical Hazard: This sign indicates that there is a potential electrical hazard in the area. The sign may have a symbol of a lightning bolt and a caution symbol.
  • Do Not Touch: This sign indicates that the area is off-limits and should not be touched. The sign may have a symbol of a hand with a line through it.
  • Keep Out: This sign indicates that the area is off-limits and should not be entered. The sign may have a symbol of a person with a line through it.

You should also display signs that indicate the location of electrical safety equipment, such as circuit breakers, fuse boxes, and emergency shut-off switches.

The signs should be clearly visible and easy to understand. They should also be placed in a prominent location where they are likely to be seen by people who need to see them.

By displaying electrical hazard signs, you can help to ensure that your employees and customers are aware of the electrical hazards in your workplace and take the necessary precautions to stay safe.

The Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996 requires employers to display hazard warning signs where there is a significant risk of injury or illness. The specific signs that are required will vary depending on the hazards present in the workplace. However, electrical hazard signs are likely to be required in any workplace where there is electrical equipment or wiring.

The signs should be displayed in a prominent location where they are likely to be seen by people who need to see them. They should also be made of durable materials and be easy to read.

If you are unsure whether or not you need to display electrical hazard signs, you should consult with a qualified safety professional.
